In keeping with our Culture of Care Guidelines, COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters are strongly encouraged, but no longer required. Masks are required in all indoor spaces (including the shared common areas of the guest house) for those who are not vaccinated, or for anyone showing any symptoms related to COVID-19, the flu, RSV, or a cold. Hollins will rely on guests to behave honorably and ensure they follow these protocols.
Two Beautiful Options for Campus Guests
Guest housing is for the exclusive use of special university visitors including trustees and their guests, alumnae, visiting faculty, speakers, Hollins faculty and administrative job candidates, student prospects and their parents, parents of current students, visiting high school guidance counselors, consultants, and other designated visitors approved by the university. Accommodations for current or visiting students will not be provided. All reservation requests should be made through Brittany Wade in the Office of Special Programming.
