International Applicants

Oberlin is a leader in offering financial aid to the most highly qualified international applicants. The amount of aid is determined solely on the basis of the student’s financial need. Before a visa is issued, all international students who request financial aid are asked to show evidence of having resources equal to the difference between Oberlin’s cost and the financial-aid package for each year they will be in the United States.

 For additional information regarding international student financial aid, please contact the relevant Office of Admissions.
