I absolutely love Rollins College. The campus is stunning and makes the perfect backdrop for family photos, engagements, and wedding portraits. The light, the architecture, and the peaceful walkways are always beautiful. If you are looking for a gorgeous location and a photographer to capture your memories, I would love to serve you.

My son goes to Rollins College and he can't be happier. Great teachers, wonderful kids, delicious food, very small up to 15 students classes.

What a beautiful campus! I absolutely love the trail by the lake - it's perfect for a morning run. All of the wildlife, nature, & fresh air... not to mention the beautiful sunrises... & all of the gorgeous buildings.

Rollins College offers a stunning, Spanish-Mediterranean campus in Winter Park. They have the most wonderful lunch options I’ve ever seen for a college, strong academic programs that encourage hands-on learning and critical thinking. It has great liberal arts! They definitely uphold quality and beauty. It is a gem. Beyond excellent academics and caring professors, the campus has immaculate groundskeeping, lush grass, and a sparkling lakeside setting that create a calm inspiring atmosphere for learning. I enjoyed attending here.

We have visited dozens of colleges and universities, and Rollins College campus is one of the most beautiful. The grounds are immaculate and spacious, located on the lake in Winter Park. While there we visited the Rollins Museum of Art on campus too.

Beautiful, small college in a quaint little town. We did the college tour today and was impressed not only of the academical buildings but also of the genuine interest in potential students. Everything felt friendly and non constricted. Be sure to check out the town of Winter Park when you are there; nice mix of ice cream parlors, burger joints and fine dining Everything situated in a small town sleepiness.

It’s a great place for photos and pictures. Especially nice to walk around the lake. Many birds too.

This is a private college very well rated for business school. Located in the heart of Winter Park. It is a small college with a small pool of students. Easy to park at the Sun Trust parking garage. Wonderful staff. The location is gorgeous! Regarding pricing I would say that is above average for Florida. Dorms are good. There’s options for food inside the college and outside, just crossing the street is easy to find amazing restaurants and the environment around is full of life. Security in the area is pretty good.

My husband and I went to a baseball game today with our grandson and had a great time. Everything went well but they need a snack bar inside the stadium so we don't have to hike just to get something. I will say that the Campus cop took my grandson after the game to have the players autograph the foul balls he had. My grandson was so excited and the officer was absolutely an angel in making the day fabulous. Ask for Officer Rich to take your kids to get balls signed after the game,and I bet he does it. What a joy!

I graduated from this fine educational institution-and I still think of this place fondly.The campus is absolutely stunning.There's so much history to the campus as well.It ranks number one best Regional Universities in the entire southeast.

For starters, the graduate admissions director "Brian Barilone" is a complete ass. After enrolling for a masters program and being left in the dark for nearly 4 months I called him to get an update in which his mailbox was full. After I had let someone know to get in contact with him due to this issue he called me really unprofessionally and out of pure spite DENIED my application. I was honestly really excited to attend Rollins but after talking to Brian I am glad I found another college to attend.

I've never attended college here but I've gone to some public events on campus. Such beautiful architecture here! Did you know there are Arts & Culture events open to the public? I saw Dr. Jane Goodall speak here on campus in 2012 as a speaker in the Winter Park Institute. There is also a free Cornell Fine Arts Museum, Annie Russell Theater student performances, Bach Festival Society performances and the Winter with the Writers. There are additional Rollings events listed on their website.

5 Stars because I loved my time at Rollins (2xgrad) as well as my experience as an alumna. Updating my review given that I recommend the Evening School (Hamilton Holt) at Rollins to anyone who will listen. The reasons in my original review stand, but I want to add a comment about my experience post-graduation with the college. I've been asked to participate and contribute in alumni panels, career spotlight segments for social media, and articles for the magazine as an alumna. All of my interactions with staff and faculty after graduation has been fantastic. They treat their graduates with respect and do a great job of connecting current students with alumna in their potential future fields (if students make use of the career center). This college is so much more than it's absolutely stunning grounds. That's why they can't get rid of this gal!

We are currently touring colleges for our daughter who will be class of 2018. Rollins was a beautiful campus! We had our tour guide all to ourselves. Our guide was a current student with a wealth of information about Rollins. Rollins has everything that our daughter is looking for as she gets ready for her higher education. But it is close enough for mom and dad to still be there if she needs us..which probably won't happen. The tour and information that we received today made me want to go to Rollins too. Hmm... masters degree for me possibly????

Attended the annual festival violin master class recently- because it's beautiful. It is always a pleasure to come to the campus for any event, to go to the Cornell Museum, or just to visit this gorgeous lake front college. This great college also has the Holt School - great evening classes for full-time workers to get a Rollins degree. So happy to have this beautiful prestigious college in our town!

Great school, beautiful campus, engaging programs and classes, study abroad, endless clubs and fairs. There's always something going on from "play chess in the ward classroom" or "the RAs are making pancakes in the lobby so stop by when u can."

What's not to love? Nothing! I just graduated with my second Rollins degree. I have both an MBA and DBA from Rollins. I describe the Rollins community as a family - not simply faculty, staff, and students. The faculty and staff truly care about the students based on my experience. If you want to learn and succeed, you will because Rollins will help you if you need it. You just need to ask. In my MBA program, I had a professor meet me on a Saturday at Panera with his daughter (for whom I bought cookies) to help me with a project/paper, for example. As another example, my statistics professor added on campus teacher-led (not graduate student led) study sessions at night at my class's request (we were not a bunch of math whizzes). Rollins celebrates "fox day" once a year, a college version of "senior skip day" but for all (or almost all) students. The Crummer Graduate School of Business students are not excused from classes on this day and may only participate when their schedules permit. Crummer is an important part of the college community, and my wish is for this to change, at least for the early admission students (professional and executive students may still need to be omitted). This exclusion unnecessarily promotes an us/them division instead of building the total Rollins community. If you only have an hour between classes at lunch and these classes are not near the cafeteria, consider one of the campus cafes. The campus is quite spread out; for example, Crummer and the cafeteria are not close. Between the walk and the sometimes long cafeteria lines, an hour may not be enough. Alternatively, consider the cafeteria's sushi or salad which does not require waiting in line for meal preparation. Rollins was also voted one of the most beautiful campuses in the USA.

My daughter goes to this school. Wonderful campus. Private school with good student to teacher ratios in all classes. Quality degree programs. Attached to one of the nicest cities in the Orlando area Winter Park.

Great school! Staff and faculty are super nice. I attend the evening classes and it's really affordable and offer great degree programs! I made tons of friends and developed close relationships with staff and faculty. They do a ton of fun things for students through out the year. I couldn't ask anything more from Rollins College. Also, if your looking for a place to take photos or need a place to sit and enjoy nature, this is a great place!!

As an alum I can definitely say I miss my time at this school. The professors were wonderful and the courses were challenging and engaging. This reviews is based on the community and campus at Rollins. Not only are there monthly events free to the community but this school has cultivated a great literary, artistic, scientific atmosphere and community through their various free programs and renowned guests such as Jane Goodall, Oliver Stone, Ken Burns, Dr. Michio Kaku, Gloria Steinem, David McCullough, and so many more. Events like Winter With the Writers (organized by the English Department and my fellow English majors), the Winter Park Institute, the Bach Festival, and many community events such as picnics and holiday events are open to everyone. The campus is beautiful and you'll often see photographers and people just walking on campus to take in the view. It's great to visit for a few hours, walk around, chat with professors and students, catch a soccer game, walk the lake, visit the library, take a look at the archives (You'll find so much more than Mr. Rogers memorabilia-although he's awesome). Finally, walk nearby Park Avenue and end your day at one of the local restaurants. You can see and feel the history all around you here and it's wonderful.

I can't believe nobody has written a review yet of this prestigious school. My friends and I were here to play some basketball. We normally play outside at various parks throughout Orlando. However it is just too damn hot to do that anymore. So we hit up the gym over at Rollins. Home of the Tars. They have a pretty nice sports facility over there. They have their main court that their college volleyball and basketball teams play on. Upstairs from there is another court. Definitely worth checking out. The only catch with playing here is that you have to be a guest of a Rollins student. Sometimes the guy is pretty cool about it letting people play but just to be on the safe side. WeatherMan Predicts: Some serious hoopage! But make sure you bring your own form of hydration. The water fountain or bubbler (new england thang) is just straight nasty!

This review is just as a community member, not a student of Rollins. The campus is gorgeous with lots of beautiful areas for walking/running/biking, if you're a runner make sure you hit the trail down by the lake that goes past the docks, it is the perfect soft crushed gravel surface and your feet/legs will LOVE IT. I have also been to community classes there and they were well organized and presented as part of a delicious luncheon.

I'm currently a graduate student studying Public Health at Rollins and I loveee my program. Because I am an evening student, I don't really attend many of the activities on campus, but I'm here for an education and I truly am getting a topnotch education here. The faculty are amazing and truly care about their students. So far, most if not all give us their email and cell phone number and we are able to contact them. For example, while working on an assignment on a Saturday, I was able to text my professor and they reached out to me in less than an hour with clarification on the assignment. I've had a cohort of 18 since I started and will probably stay close with them when I graduate in May. I would truly recommend Rollins Colleges' grad program! Although I loved my undergraduate experience at a larger university, looking back to senior year in high school, I wish I would have applied to their undergraduate program (it is very expensive for undergrad, but I have heard they do give a lot of scholarships).

During the school year, Rollins College offers free recitals put on by the faculty and students. Check their website's music dept calendar for specifics. Usually its an hour or so performance that begins at 7:30pm. Most of the performances I've seen have been good to great. Soprano singing, string ensembles, piano, etc.

Went on a tour here. Wow, it seemed completely awesome! If you can afford to go here, do it! The town is super cute too, though a little snobby. The music program was full of very talented and hard-working students and professors. Seems like there's a lot of culture here to keep you interested in life, and yet it's a small school. Wish I had gone here! Some photos: http://www.lotsafunmaps.com/Central_Florida/Rollins_College_Winter_Park.html
