Hey guys, I’m currently a junior and Middlebury is really the only school i’ve put serious thought into. If you can Chance me, or suggest any other schools I could get into that would be awesome thanks. P.S. I’ve also put some thought into Georgetown (I know its a reach) only because I have ties with somebody who is somewhat influential there(And it has a great foreign service program).
My school is a major feeder to Middlebury and georgetown. We sent like over ten kids to georgetown last year and like 5 to middle bury.
I plan on applying ED to middle bury and visiting it twice as well as visiting georgetown once
