We are perfectly positioned.

Our lakeside campus is situated in the heart of Winter Park, Florida, a friendly cosmopolitan community on the edge of Orlando, one of the most diverse and fastest-growing cities in the nation.

The beauty of campus Everyone from The Princeton Review to Condé Nast Traveler regularly ranks Rollins among the nation’s most beautiful colleges. But the real beauty of our tight-knit residential campus goes far beyond our stunning lakeside location and sunny weather. From stateof-the-art classrooms, labs, and performance venues to dynamic hubs focused on collaboration, community, and professional development, every inch of our 80-acre campus is designed with your bright future in mind.

The charm of Winter Park Most nights and every weekend, folks from across Central Florida flock to Park Avenue, Winter Park’s charming promenade of world-class shopping, dining, culture, and leisure. For Rollins students, the commute is far shorter.

After all, Park Avenue intersects with campus, so everything from hip boutiques and chic cafes to a bustling farmers market and award-winning restaurants is always just steps away.

The opportunity of Orlando From adrenaline-pumping adventure to best-in-the-nation professional opportunity, Orlando checks all the boxes when it comes to college towns. Downtown Orlando’s pro sports, performance venues, and internships are just a 15-minute train ride away, and the world’s best collection of theme parks, attractions, and beaches are within driving distance. No wonder Orlando consistently ranks among the nation’s best cities for college students and graduates.

We are the time of your life.

From standout traditions to hundreds of ways to get involved, Rollins offers ample avenues to find your anchor and pursue your passions. Whether you’re paddle boarding on Lake Virginia between classes or learning to lead through one of our more than 150 student-run clubs and organizations, every day is a new adventure.

150+ student-led organizations Student media and government Service and honorary organizations Fraternity and sorority life Intramural sports and group fitness classes Professional societies

That’s just a start.
