<p>Does anyone know anything about this? I found out today i have one good for $25,000 per year, for each of the 4 years. Anyone know like how many people get this scholarship or what the amounts you receive can be (I've heard the value of the scholarship ranges).</p>

<p>i know about as much as you do..... i got it too, for 15K per year. and i saw someone else post that they got it for 2.5K per year. so it most def ranges. but CONGRATS to you and all other recipients reading this.</p>

<p>I also got 15,000 a year. I was really surprised to get a scholarship offer, as I didn't even apply for financial aid...</p>

<p>ya, i got 5k a year, was hoping for more since this school is so damn expensive and i really want to go there, money still has to be a consideration though. does anybody know anything about bonner scholars?</p>

<p>I got one as well! for 4000 per year. I also received a great need based aid scholarship as well. Oberlin is definitely on my list of schools to consider so this is great.</p>

<p>The John Frederick Oberlin scholarship is one of the merit-based scholarships that Financial Aid offers. I was awarded one last year and it had a big impact on my (good) decision to enroll. I don't have any more information about it than what came in my financial aid package last year, though. Congrats to you all!</p>
