accepted!
there a facebook page for Oberlin class of 2023–feel free to join!
^ But note that the “open” group is not officially endorsed by the college, and is set up mainly to sell you stuff. There will be a “closed” group set up by Oberlin, available only to students actually accepted, and that’s the one you should join.
My daughter was accepted and is SO happy!
I’m a little late to the convo, but I’ve been keeping up with this thread for a while now I just submitted my application for ED II yesterday! Thankfully the wait is only 13 days for this round, but I’m still really nervous, it’s been the only thing on my mind. Is there anyone else who is waiting to hear back about ED II?
Congrats to everyone accepted from the first round! Fingers crossed I can say the same in a couple of weeks, this has been my dream school for years
My son is applying ED 2. Oberlin website says the decisions are released February 1. You write that the wait is just 13 days from the application deadline, or Jan 15–Have you heard differently?
You’re right I have absolutely no idea why I thought it was the 15th- I think I was mixing it up with the reply date of Feb 15th. Sorry about that, so many dates to keep track of with colleges!
Yeah, I figured a two-week turnaround would be amazingly quick! Anyway, good luck.
Does anyone know what time it comes out today?
No–if you call, they just say they have no further info.
Rejected!

I’m sorry. I know it feels terrible. But you’ll find your place.
My niece was rejected by her top three choices, ended up at her 4th, and loved it so much. My other niece was accepted by ONLY her one “safety” school. She is absolutely thrilled that she ended up there. Both were great students, lovely talented girls etc. It’s just so very competitive these days. Good luck. (From a parent.)
