My S was admitted with $20k scholarship….

Son accepted to college and conservatory. Sweet merit scholarships from both schools, too.

My child was accepted regular decision with enough grants to make Oberlin possible. Couldn’t be happier. He is a creative writing major, and Oberlin’s program is one of the best.
