<p>To transfer into Oberlin:</p>
<p>What kind of GPA do you think they'll expect from a transfer applicant?</p>
<p>I'm not going to apply for fin aid, will that help?</p>
<p>Oberlin admissions isn't especially quantitatively-oriented, so your first question sort of misses the point. You need to have done well in your first college, but there isn't a cut-off number.</p>
<p>And no, your financial aid status doesn't make a difference to your chances of being admitted. The admissions people don't know your status when they decide.</p>
<p>cool so Oberlin is need-blind even for transfers? I know Vassar College is need-blind for first-year applicants, but it admits to NOT being needblind for transfer applicants.</p>
<p>How is their financial aid for accepted transfer students though?</p>
<p>Financial aid for accepted transfer students is exactly the same as for anyone else: the full need (as measured by FAFSA) for all accepted students is met by financial aid.</p>
