Student Life

Campus life at Hollins is a world unto itself.

On our grounds, you are in a community of people like you. People who love to invent and create, to take advantage
of events and opportunities. People who celebrate the creative expression of others. Here, you’re free to be who you are.

“I learned I can be a leader, I can be an innovator, and I can be a creator of change.”

Jasmine Carmichael

Class of '23

“I’ve become a lot more open to new experiences. I feel like I’m more understanding. Hollins has helped me meet people where they are rather than try to hurry them along. I genuinely feel like Hollins was the best choice for me. I can’t even picture what my life would have been like if I had gone somewhere else.”

Zoe Brooks

Class of '23

“I’ve developed wonderful, lifelong relationships with people who have guided me. I’ve gained mentors like I never knew I would. I’m just so grateful for the support. Community is what everyone talks about at Hollins, and they do that for a reason. I can honestly say I’m a different person than I was when I first came here, and absolutely for the better.”
