Admissions

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.

- Take advantage of all the opportunities offered by Midd - in academics, extracurriculars, volunteer opportunities, outdoor heritage - get all you can out of it!

Vermont really isn't that cold!

-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.

Definitely remember the importance of staying involved in high school. In your application, try to show your personality, and excitement for life. Remember to show that you are well rounded. Becoming a Feb is always a great option!

midd loves people who show interest! visit, or, if you can't write them an email explaining how much you love the school. if you are deferred ed, do not give up hope! reach out to admissions once or twice to show that the school remains your top choice. that being said, midd is a very rigorous and academically challenging place. make sure you are prepared for that!

Go for a visit and be active. If you are taking a tour, don't simply linger around the back of the group and walk around the campus. Ask questions. Keep up with your tour guide. I visited several colleges this summer and no one seems to ever want to be the first one to go through the door after the guide, or be at the head of the pack. Get involved!
If you are going on multiple college visits, keep a notebook and jot down some important facts about the campus, positive and negative things, to help you make decisions later on. After a few visits, different colleges do tend to meld together and you forget the little things that you thought were cool.

1. Ask questions and double-check if you're unsure about something. People here are very helpful.
2. Make a list of clubs you may want to join so you don't feel overwhelmed by all the opportunities.
3. Contact your professors and coaches and let yourself be known.

Students should enjoy all the opportunities to diversify their knowledge through guest speaker events, foreign movies, even having meals at the cafeteria.

Definitely visit Midd! Based on a great deal of research, I decided that I wanted to apply (due to pretty much every aspect of the school), but my campus visit was great. It allowed me to be more confident in my decision to apply because I could genuinely see myself taking on the role of a Middlebury student. The information session was particularly inspiring.
