How much financial aid does Oberlin provide to its students?
Approximately 70 percent of Oberlin students now receive some form of financial aid, a far higher percentage than at most of its peer schools. This year, Oberlin will spend more than $41 million on financial aid, a 280 percent increase compared to just 14 years ago. That total is equivalent to 28 percent of the College’s operating budget, a ranking among the highest of any college or university in the country.
