Learn more about Rollins’ new Evening Educare program, which offers low-cost, high-quality childcare to students in the Hamilton Holt School’s Professional Advancement and Graduate Studies programs.
Rollins’ new Evening Educare program provides high-quality childcare to parents pursuing bachelor’s and master’s degrees through the College’s Professional Advancement and Graduate Studies programs.
The new program, which is housed in the Hume House Child Development & Student Research Center on campus, provides childcare for children ages 5 to 11 while their parents attend evening classes on campus.
The Evening Educare program features a much smaller teacher-to-child ratio than typical childcare programs for elementary-age children with at least one teacher for every six children.
Launched this past fall, the program costs just $5 per hour for the spring and summer 2025 semesters. Thanks to a gift from the Warren and Augusta Hume Foundation, the program will be free for eligible students beginning in fall 2025.
No app fee. No tests required. No reason to wait.
Apply today with no application fee or standardized tests required and take the first step to finishing your bachelor’s degree. You’re guaranteed admission with a 2.8 GPA or higher, and you’ll automatically be considered for scholarships.
