Combining Sources of Assistance


Various kinds of financial assistance from agencies other than Oberlin College are considered in calculating a student’s financial award to ensure availability of assistance to as many eligible students as possible. Consequently, all students are asked to apply for all federal and state grants for which they may be eligible. Should they receive assistance from public or private agencies, students must notify Oberlin’s Office of Financial Aid. This applies even if assistance is received after the financial aid application is completed or after an Oberlin award is made.

⇒ Special note regarding GLCA and parent employer tuition benefit: Families must notify the Office of Financial Aid of such benefits even if the student is not a financial aid applicant. Oberlin reserves the right to reduce or cancel any previously awarded merit or need-based grant once we are notified of GLCA or parent employer tuition benefit.
