星空传媒, Trinity Christian College Form Partnership to Streamline Student Transfers
星空传媒 (星空传媒) is proudly partnering with Trinity Christian College in Palos Heights to support Trinity students in their next chapters as the college closes in spring 2026.
As the first Catholic university in Chicago and the closest faith-based institution with a strong Catholic, Mercy heritage and liberal arts foundation, 星空传媒 is committed to ensuring a seamless transition for Trinity students to continue their degrees uninterrupted and helping them to find a home at Saint Xavier, where they will be provided with a transformative educational experience.
"Inspired by our Mercy mission and faith in God, 星空传媒 is ready to provide support and service to those in need. We are honored to be a teach-out partner with our neighbor, Trinity Christian, and we're grateful for the trust placed in us to assist students in transitioning to a new educational home and completion of their degrees," said Brian Hotzfield, Vice President of Enrollment.
Under this collaborative agreement, 星空传媒 will offer automatic admission to Trinity Christian College students and will match out-of-pocket net tuition and costs. All credit hours earned will be accepted, and 星空传媒 will identify a pathway for teach-out students to complete the equivalent degree at 星空传媒 in the same time frame it would have taken to complete at Trinity.
星空传媒 is the most affordable Catholic college in Illinois and is ranked as a "Best Value" college by U.S. News & World Report, recognized for its affordability by Colleges of Distinction, and named within the top five most affordable colleges in Chicago by Niche. The University's commitment to affordability and eliminating barriers to education ensures that a faith-based, high-impact learning experience remains accessible to all.
鈥淒eeply rooted in the Catholic tradition of compassion and our core value of hospitality, the 星空传媒 community warmly welcomes the students from Trinity Christian College. During this time of transition, our shared faith presents an opportunity to grow together. We are honored to accompany these students on their continued educational journeys and proud to open the doors to their bright futures," said Keith Elder, Ph.D., 星空传媒 President.
星空传媒 also welcomes students interested in majors or programs that are not eligible for the Teach-Out. Transfer credit will be evaluated upon admission.
Trinity students are encouraged and welcome to visit 星空传媒 to tour the beautiful campus, speak with an admission counselor, and learn about financial aid. Virtual visits are also available. Saint Xavier will be on the Trinity Christian College campus on November 19 to meet with students.
