“In terms of academics, I’ve had a lot of experience with research that I think would have been harder for me to attain at larger schools.”

Yareli-Sosa-Antunez '23

“Hollins has prepared me for so much. It’s because of the classes, it’s because of my relationship with my professors, being able to talk to them, and it’s feeling like this is a safe place to express my opinions and getting tons of practice in doing that. Hollins has given me immense life skills.”

Letitia Thym '23

“The… faculty are wonderful and supportive. Anyone I’ve taken classes with has really given me guidance, and I’ve been lucky to have research opportunities.”
