[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Midd likes private school kids.[/quote] That’s one way to stay “need-blind,” coupled with filling your class with ED applicants. [/quote] Is the school need blind or need-aware? Given financial issues, aware??[/quote] Still need blind. [/quote] And as PP said, in name only. The school is white as bread and filled with trust fund ski bros (and “bras”). [/quote] 46% of students receive financial aid, and the average grant is $60,202 (according to their website): https://www.middlebury.edu/college/admissions/affordability So while there are a lot of very rich kids there, there are also many who are not. [/quote] 46% is pretty low for a school that doesn’t give merit aid and is $90k. That means >50% parents can afford $90k a year, that’s very atypical.[/quote] Really? Seems about average for the NESCAC. Amherst: 56% Bates: 43% Bowdoin: 50% Colby: 45% Conn College: 49% Hamilton: 50% Trinity: 40% Tufts: 40% Wesleyan: 42% Williams: 52%[/quote] Conn College number is off. They give merit to every accepted student. But NESCAC is still a rarity, there’s a reason there’s so many prep school kids.[/quote]
