What do we do?

Community Engagement Courses at Rollins offer students opportunities to learn from doing. They are not only sitting in a classroom as in a traditional college class, they can also understand the course subjects from serving a local organization that is a community partner of the college. This semester we are working with the Hamilton Holt school at Rollins College to increase the brand awareness of the program and to increase the engagement level of Holt community to Rollins mission, events, and activities.

Below are sample blog posts crafted by students from the New Media and Public Relations class.

College is a different experience for everyone. Some people want to live on campus, see the same people every day, and eat exclusively at the on-campus dining halls. Others appreciate the amenities of campus life but have other commitments during their undergraduate education to attend to. Both are valid, and in our experience at Rollins College, there are undergraduate and graduate programs to provide you with the unique college experience you’re looking for.

The Hamilton Holt School at Rollins College offers a variety of graduate and undergraduate programs with weekday and weekend evening meeting options. With most courses having 17 students, it’s a customizable education option to fit the lifestyle you’re already actively living. There are many benefits to the Hamilton Holt School, it offers a Convenient and Flexible Schedule, it's more affordable than other Rollins Programs, and students get the same type of education and assistance as a CLA student.

Convenience and Flexibility of Schedule 

Between family and work, you might feel too busy and intimidated to pursue your educational goal. I’m here to tell you you’re not alone! The Holt program might even be the answer to your concern as it’s designed to fit your needs and lifestyle. What I mean by this is that the courses are designed to meet the interests of professionals and other adult learners. This is because we understand that keeping your current professional occupation and being able to take care of your family is one of your main priorities when deciding when and how to follow your academic dream. The program extends quality education to students who prefer the flexibility of part- or full-time study as well as the convenience of afternoon, evening, and weekend classes.
"I decided to come to the Holt program because they offer in-person and flexible schedule classes for my program that is usually found online." - Rachel Commodario
More affordable than other Rollins Programs

Rollins Hamilton Holt Program offers more affordable tuition. Evening students get to pay per course which makes it more affordable. Depending on your degree, undergraduate or graduate, the amount of money per credit varies. It can go from $503 to $685, undergraduate and graduate programs accordingly. This program benefits working adults who want to finish their degree or continue their studies but can’t afford expensive programs. Tuition at the Hamilton Holt School is competitive and comparable to that of community colleges and state universities. More than 70% of Rollins students receive financial aid, and available aid packages include scholarships, grants, and work-study opportunities. For more detailed information about Financial Aid you can access this video.

Same education quality and access to the same student resources 

Though courses are taught in the afternoon or evening, the quality of Holt’s education is the same as the CLA’s education, after all, we’re all Rollins students, right? In many cases, they share the same professors and staff. Both programs provide academic advisors that will help each student with their academic plans and progress, academic schedule, choice of major, and other academic activities and career goals. They also assist the student in making decisions concerning personal educational goals leading to graduation. Students from all the programs at Rollins College have access to many resources, from which include but not limited to services at the Wellness Center, Career and Life Planning, tutoring, etc. Furthermore, they can also be a part of the many student organizations, such as Greek Life, Black Student Union, Sandspur Newspaper, and so much more.

If you’re ready to reap these benefits in your undergraduate or graduate education, it’s as simple as browsing the list of programs and exploring how you’d want to advance your career. Starting your college education, or transferring to finish your credits in the Rollins learning environment is accessible to you today and always.
