    Bang for the buck

    The price of tuition is one of the most expensive in the country. Furthermore, Middlebury does not offer merit-based scholarships.
    Tips for prospective students

    Ask to sit in on classes that seem interesting to you. Teachers are very open-armed and helpful to prospective students, as is the admissions office.
    Great for these types of students

    Middlebury's rural setting may be a difficult adjustment for students from fast-paced urban areas, like NYC. However its agrarian surroundings and confluence with nature lends to a great sense of peace. It is a great school for students who are looking to be active and outdoors at a school rich with both culture and history.

    The Greek system of fraternities and sororities has long since been extricated from Middlebury. Students who are looking for a close, tight knit and highly motivated community would greatly enjoy Middlebury.

    Will learn a lot

    Despite the small student population, there are so many academic options available. Many of the departments are respected throughout the world.
    One of the major reasons I decided to apply was the Spanish class I observed on an overnight visit. The immersing style was so wonderful and much more realistic than my experiences in high school Spanish.
    Will enjoy being here

    It's Vermont! It's beautiful! Ahh, I cannot wait for winter to try out the snow bowl!
    Also, I'm used to small classes so I'm excited to be in a small and intimate setting again.
    Bang for the buck

    Well, yes, it's very expensive. I will be working my tail off all summer to pay for it.
    Tips for prospective students

    -Visit! overnight if you can
    -eat at the dining hall. It allows you to observe the social life and the types of people that attend with seeming like a total creeper. And also, the food is amazing.
    -check out the panoramic views from the chapel, if that doesn't catch your attention I don't know what else will.
    Great for these types of students

    -quirky, intelligent, passionate, athletic, outdoorsy, motivated, oh and realllyyy attractive.

    Midd has been my top choice since fourth grade. Its language programs are the best in the country. Every faculty member and student that I have met has been amazingly supportive and intelligent.
    Tips for prospective students

    Vermont really isn't that cold!
    What to do for fun

    I am so excited that middlebury is one of only two colleges in the country that has its own ski area!
    Bang for the buck

    Although Middlebury is very expensive, it is totally worth it. Plus, they are well-endowed and fair with financial aid.
