Gym, Pool, on-Campus Museums..What More Could You Want?
The facilities at Rollins College are really good, especially for such a small school. There are regular classes at the gym- available for everyone, in yoga, zumba, pilates..and much more, all for free! There is also a swimming pool on campus- a favorite hang out spot after a long day of hard work! Of course there's also a beautiful lake to relax by or participate in many water sports- you can even rent a canoe or sail boat from the school, for no additional cost! Dominoes is on call, and with the campus centre, grill, and starbucks-style cafe on campus, there's not much more you could need!

I Finally Found Where I Belong
Rollins is just the most amazing place to study and live. I love that it's a liberal arts college, I've learnt so much about myself. The professors are incredible, and with a maximum of 20 students in a class, your potential is really stretched. Everyone is friendly and willing to help, not one person has ever said 'No, you can't do that' it's always 'It may be difficult, but lets see how we can get you there.' Rollins really cares about you as a student, it's cheesy but true!!

Amazing Professors
I'm currently double majoring in psychology and philosophy with an interest in peace & conflict studies. The professors and other students are always easy and open to talk to, and will often go out of their way to help you with anything. All the professors at Rollins are doctorates in their subject and have a lot of world experience, so they really know their subjects and make them really interesting..even if it does mean they're tough graders!

Really Close to Orlando & Theme Parks
Rollins is set in the city of Winter Park, it's quite but beautiful. There are lots of restaurants and at the weekend they often have live music. There's a whole avenue of boutique shopping and there's constantly local activities...it's really a lovely setting with parks & fountains perfect for quiet studying, or the coffee shops for those who prefer a little more hustle & bustle!! For real nightlife everyone heads into Orlando, which is about 10mins via car/taxi. Then when you're willing to splurge on fun disney, universal studios, sea world & all the water parks are only a 20min drive away! Definitely a perfect location, only lacking in good public transport.

Pretty Strict
The campus is a dry campus and so that means anyone caught with alcohol or drugs gets into a lot of trouble, especially in the freshman dorms. In fact most orientation's someone gets arrested..scary stuff. But if there's someone in danger security will help you out & won't punish those who called for help, which is pretty good.

Rollins has a very good soccer team! The stands are always full, even when the game is paused due to the famous Florida lightning storms!
