Robinson Scholarship

Robinson Scholarship

Free Tuition to Oberlin College

Professor William L. Robinson, founding Dean of the District of Columbia School of Law and the UDC David A. Clarke School of Law, will now have an endowed scholarship named in honor of him.

An anonymous donor has given $1 million to help endow the William L. Robinson Scholars Program. The program is open to students who attend all four years of Oberlin High School, Oberlin City School District resident for four years, and qualify for admission to Oberlin College. Oberlin launched the partnership scholarship program 15 years ago, providing an opportunity for graduating Oberlin seniors to receive full tuition scholarships to attend a top-ranked liberal arts college.


This is a great opportunity for our students and families.
