It’s very hard to answer your question directly, @honeyoolongtea : yes, you’re in with a chance, but what you need to do is demonstrate to Midd why you want Midd above every other university in the country/world, and why you’re a better choice for them than the 8,000+ applicants that they’ll turn down for the Class of 2024.

As an alumni interviewer, it matters if you can coherently and credibly answer these questions. And if haven’t visited and can, you should - Midd wants to know that you’ve seen the reality of it and of rural VT.

Hope this helps, pls DM if you have specific questions.
