What does college life really look like? Who better to ask than the seniors who know their way around?

We brought together Rollins seniors and first-year students for candid, unfiltered conversations about navigating college life, tackling new challenges, and making the most of the many opportunities available at the No. 1 liberal arts college in Florida.

From memorable first-day experiences and roommate advice to managing stress, changing majors, and going to professors’ office hours, seniors share firsthand insights gained over their four years at Rollins. Along the way, they offer practical tips for adjusting to college, making connections, and finding your place on campus.

These seniors also serve as peer mentors, an important part of Rollins’ supportive network that helps students navigate challenges, build confidence, and forge meaningful relationships. Alongside dedicated faculty, staff, and classmates, they help foster a close-knit community where students feel supported from day one.
