Oberlin Overnight: Diversity & Access

Oberlin flies in high school seniors for a multi-day campus visit built around its commitment to diversity and access. You tour campus, sit in on classes, and attend admissions and financial aid workshops alongside current students, faculty, and staff. The college pays for round-trip airfare to Cleveland (or reimburses driving costs), meals, and housing. Selection weighs financial need alongside academic strength and a demonstrated interest in Oberlin's diversity history.

Who can apply

EligibilityOpen to all U.S.-based seniors, but first-generation, low-income, and students of color are strongly encouraged to apply, and financial need factors into selection.
