He was a college basketball player for Rutgers University and Florida. He represented Puerto Rico at the 2012 Olympic Qualifying Tournament, and the FIBA Under-19 World Championship. He never won a medal in either of these competitions.
After his time with St. Anthony, he participated in the 2008 McDonald’s All- American Boys Game along with many other future stars like Tyreke Evans and Kemba Walker. He was the sixth high school student to participate in this prestigious game. Rosario finished the game with 18 points and five steals. He played 19 minutes.
Rosario was forced to redshirt his third season with Florida because of NCAA transfer rules. He said, “Oh, man, I wanted to grab a uniform so bad sometimes.” However, since the preseason, Rosario endured a disc problem in his lower back that caused numbness in the area, but did not require surgery according to Billy Donovan. As Florida’s 2010-11 season came to a close, Rosario, with Erving Walker, became one of just two players on the roster to enter their fourth year.

The Friars eventually won the state championship upon Hurley’s comments on the year, “If you don’t win a state championship, you will never be remembered.”
Rosario made his debut for Rutgers in November 2008, scoring 17 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 steals against Marist. Rosario was the first rookie Scarlet Knight to score more than 17 points in the team’s season opener since Mike Jones (1993).
