About Off-Campus Housing Near Rollins College
Rollins College keeps things small, with about 3,100 students on an 80-acre campus set right on the shore of Lake Virginia in Winter Park, Florida. The Mediterranean-style buildings and the landmark Knowles Memorial Chapel make it one of the prettiest campuses in the country, and the lake means kayaks and sailing are part of student life. Winter Park itself is a walkable, tree-lined town just north of Orlando, built around Central Park, the brick-paved Park Avenue district, and the historic Hannibal Square neighborhood. Each spring the president declares Fox Day, surprising students with a day off too pretty for class. The SunRail train stops downtown and connects you to Orlando, and campus is steps from the park.
Rollins College Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
Rollins has one of the longer live-on requirements: full-time College of Liberal Arts students must live on campus for three years, or six semesters. Most students stay on campus through those years before the off-campus search, which usually comes senior year.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Exemptions exist for students living with a parent or guardian within a 30-mile radius, those with enough transfer credit, students with dependents, and case-by-case appeals through the housing portal. Once cleared, students at Rollins look at Winter Park apartment complexes, condos, and smaller homes, often shared among roommates.
Lease Timing
The process runs through private landlords and management companies: an application, proof of income or a guarantor, and first month plus a deposit. Leases usually run a full twelve months. Because Winter Park and Orlando have a competitive rental market, tour in person, confirm what is included, and read the lease's guest and occupancy terms before signing.
