From the Institution

At Hollins, we've been empowering women to lead, create, and thrive since 1842. Here, you won't just learn-you'll do. Whether you're into science, art, business, writing, or exploring how the mind works, Hollins gives you the tools to turn your passion into a purpose. Our top majors-English, biology, psychology, business, and studio art-show how expansive your path can be. With an average class size of 12 and a student-to-faculty ratio of 9:1, you won't get lost in the crowd. Your professors will know your name, your goals, and help you reach them. Learning at Hollins goes beyond the classroom. Every January, our Short Term provides a special month to explore-intern at a company, travel the world, dive into research, or take a unique course on-campus. Through programs like the Batten Leadership Institute and the Rutherfoord Center for Experiential Learning, you'll build confidence, leadership skills, and real-world experience. Want to study abroad? More than half our students do-with plenty of financial support to make it happen. Want to intern? 79% of our students complete at least one internship (and 50% do more than one), working at museums, hospitals, nonprofits, law firms, and global companies. And when it's time to take the next step, you're ready: 95% of Hollins graduates from the class of 2024 were employed, accepted to grad school or participating in service in organizations like the Peace Corps within six months of graduation. Beyond academics, you'll be part of a community where every student's involvement in student government is welcomed and where you can join one of our 10 DIII NCAA sports-including basketball, cross-country, flag football, riding, soccer, swimming, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. Hollins' beautiful, historic 475-acre campus in Roanoke, Virginia, is where your story can begin-and where you'll find the confidence to write your next chapter.
