[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've heard they're going through serious fiscal trouble at Middlebury.[/quote]

Not sure about “serious.” They have a $14M budget deficit this year, of which $9M is from the Middlebury Institute in California. They also have a $1.4B endowment and sub 14% acceptance rate. I’m sure they’ll be just fine.[/quote]
They have had huge budget deficits for 5 years running; it is not just Monterey but declining enrollment in all Midd schools abroad. They raised enrollment by over 10% due to budget issues. They increased the proportion of ED students dramatically two years ago. Because of budget issues. Duh.[/quote]

More nonsense. They are raising enrollment by about 50-75 kids overall because they built a new dorm with…wait for it….50 more beds. Everything else you are spouting is nonsense except for MIIS having a nagging budget deficit.  [/quote]
They increased enrollment by 300 in 2021 to 2800, said every year they were going back down to 2500 — and that the enrollment increase was temporary — and then (after applications were in this year; info sessions for the class of 2029 said enrollment would return to 2500) only recently announced that the increase is permanent.

Here is the cite from institutional research itself:

I think all these 2000-kid schools should increase by a few hundred. They're only adding non-athletes (since those spots top out) which helps make the campuses less athlete heavy[/quote]
