Oberlin Wait List

<p>How many people does Oberlin usually accept off of the wait list?</p>

<p>Please can someone help me out. Oberlin is my top choice and it was a huge blow to be waitlisted. Is there anyone out there who has been accepted to Oberlin after being waitlisted?</p>

<p>According to the common application, last year (I think) Oberlin offered 906 waitlist spots, of those 666 people stayed on the waitlist, and of those Oberlin enrolled 18 people (although I don’t know how many offers they made.) Of course, this is an entirely different year. Because of the economy, there may be many more people than usual who do not accept the enrollment offer, so the schools may all have to dig a little more deeply into their waitlist.</p>
