Trinity College of Florida is a private interdenominational evangelical Bible college in Trinity, Florida. It was founded in 1932.
The institution was founded as Florida Bible Institute in 1932, in Temple Terrace by Dr. William T. Watson, an evangelical tent preacher from North Carolina and pastor of a large Christian and Missionary Alliance church in St. Petersburg.[1] The name was changed to Trinity College of Florida in 1947.
The college was accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of the Association for Biblical Higher Education in 1996 and maintains this accreditation today.[2]
