<p>if parents have gone to oberlin, will that play any factor if I apply?</p>
<p>Legacy does not play a large factor, it will not get you in if you don't have a good record, but I'm sure it will come into some consideration.</p>
<p>Do alot of people who meet at Oberlin get married because my parents went to Oberlin also...</p>
<p>yes, oberlin has a weirdly high marriage rate, but i've heard that married obies usually meet AFTER they graduate</p>
