I visited all the local colleges before choosing this school. I chose if because as an adult learner the small class size was important, the faculty involvement, and the course offerings were inline with my needs. The down side are the price and the fact that extracurricular activities are not really available after traditional business hours. I do love the fact that the school has no football team and can compel famous orators to the school for lectures. Maya Angelou gave a great oration one year.

I left the comment before this one, but I would like to add a few things. I did not mean to give an F for campus maintenance, the campus is in great condition. Rollins is often referred to as Rollins College Country Club. Rollins is in a great location. Winter Park is beautiful and Park Ave is great, but kind of pricey for a normal college student, but Rollins kids have no problem. Its also very close (about 10 mins) away from downtown Orlando which is a lot of fun for clubs and concerts occasionally.

The academics are very good for a science or pre-med major. Its challenging but the teachers are very helpful and care about what they do. However, if you don't plan on taking a science or going pre-med, classes are so easy. You can go out every night and coast by with a 4.0 in any other major ( this is what most of the students do).

The food is very good. Its very expensive, but worth it. Fresh sushi bar, all food has the calories and most is very very healthy. The only problem is the one cafeteria we have is never open. Breakfast is 7-10:30, lunch is 11:30-2:00 and dinner is 5-7:30.

The people as I said are insanely rich and its obnoxious.
