Rollins College is a private liberal arts college in Winter Park, Florida. It was founded in 1885. Florida's fourth oldest post-secondary institution and oldest private university, it has an approximate enrollment of 3,000 students, composed of roughly 2,500 undergraduates and 500 postgraduates.
Located in sunny Winter Park, Florida, this small liberal arts college offers a tight-knit campus experience with an 85% freshman retention rate suggesting students genuinely like it once they arrive. The relatively modest median debt of $21,385 at graduation is a bright spot, though the $33,847 annual net price is still a real commitment for a school where median earnings land at $53,100 a decade out — not a bad return, but not a standout one either. Worth considering if you want a traditional residential college feel in a desirable Florida location and value small class sizes, but financially ambitious students should weigh whether the cost-to-earnings ratio makes sense compared to public university alternatives.
