I think you have good chances as there probably aren’t that many Russian applicants to the US and your scores are matches for Oberlin, but because you need big fin aid package, it’s hard to tell.

Btw, have you had your essays edited by a native speaker or someone who’s good at English grammar? Judging from your posts, I’d say that if you wrote your essays in similar fashion, the grammar might count against you. As much as schools weigh the substance of essays, style is also very important.

On a sidenote, I’d say you’re not a URM. URM’s are strictly defined as Latinos, Blacks, Native Americans etc.
