[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Studious and collaborative, Bowdoin and Haverford.  [/quote]

I'd look at Amherst, Bowdoin, Davidson, Hamilton, Carleton plus Kenyon, Macalester and Lafayette for more likely admits (to have a full list). Middlebury was on my kids's list but they are having some money issues due to Monterey campus and have over admitted their incoming classes recently. Makes it harder to get classes according to our tour guide who was pre-med, so that fell off his list.

None of what you said about Middlebury is true except for the fact that they are discussing what to do about MIIS. Baucomb has committed to addressing MIIS within a year and likely sooner. I am sorry that your kid didn't get into Midd but if you persist I will bat you around as always.[/quote]

Yes, they are having money issues at Middlebury. It's not a secret when you can easily find the letter from the leaders of the school outlining the budget shortfall. To those who want to know the reality, you can easily search for the letter the Interim President, CFO and Provost of Middlebury sent to faculty, staff and students on April 2, 2025 and read it for yourself. Try this phrase for your search engine: "Middlebury The Budget, Our Path Forward". The letter specifically addresses that since the pandemic they have decided to enroll more students and are looking at faculty cutbacks and the enrollment issues at the Monterey Institute.

Notable quotes:

"...we're projecting a $14.1 million deficit this fiscal year, notably higher than our $8.9 million projection from October."
"Our deficits are continually an outlier among our NESCAC peers, which all operate profitably..."

And the Editorial Board of the Campus Newspaper called for Middlebury to ditch the Monterey Campus on April 17, 2025.[/quote]
