I agree. I’m trying to concentrate on finals but it’s so difficult…
@mbhopeful20 I visited too, and you’re right it’s stunning!!! Plus the students were all so friendly.
And I skied at the Snow Bowl <33
@mbhopeful20 Isn’t the campus just lovely!? Not to mention the quaint little town of Middlebury :x I visited campus in October and I was totally swept off my feet. All the fall foliage…and it even snowed a little! I’m from California so I’m not used to all that magic.
@scrappy6 arghhh I knooooow. I have a countdown on the whiteboard in my room, and this morning I turned to my cat and said “10 days left!” He made eye contact with me, yawned for a long time, and then curled up to go to sleep. I think that says enough right there :-<
@angstyaristotle @scrappy6 There was no snow on the ground, which sucks because I’m from Georgia. We don’t do that whole snow thing down here hahaha. The views from the library were absolutely breathtaking.
Everyone was extremely friendly and it seemed like everybody I saw was wearing Middlebury gear. It was an amazing experience.
@mbhopeful20 oh yeah the view from that huge library window made for a lovely instagram post, hahaha! did you eat in any of the dining halls?
Yeah! I ate in Proctor with some really cool people I met visiting from Colorado. The food was pretty good.
I also unashamedly spent about fifty bucks on T-shirts and a beanie
I didn’t eat in a dining hall but I did eat in the McCullough center which was cool! (The really modern looking room with The Grille)
I got a Middlebury sweatshirt and I’ve been wearing it so much, because if I get denied I feel like I can’t wear it again lol
At least we applied early. It saves us the agony.
@scrappy6 i’ve been sure to get some stains on my midd sweatshirt. that way, if it all goes wrong, i won’t feel too bad not wearing it again
@mbhopeful20 exactly. december 5th is an early notifcation date too!
where else are you guys applying?
@angstyaristotle I’ve been accepted to the Universities of Alabama, Georgia and Minnesota, and if I don’t get into Midd I’ll apply to Davidson, Bowdoin, Bates, Colby and Dartmouth, among some other less well-known schools. How about you?
a bunch of schools (so many supplements I’ll need to write…), but I really like Bowdoin and Colby! wbu?? @angstyaristotle
@angstyaristotle Im from South Florida! I feel like I had the same experience as most of you while visiting Middlebury–It was just so perfect. I am so nervous about December 5th, I am planning a Hanukkah party with all of my friends that night so I will be forced to stop sulking in my room if I get bad news. I cannot believe how soon December 5th is!
I can’t believe it’s so soon! Just over a week left… I don’t want to be too excited because it’s so hit or miss, but it’s such a great school. Well, good luck to you all and in a perfect world I’d look forward to meeting you all next year
Hey guys!! I’m also waiting for ED result & feel the exact same way!! (I’m basically freaking out every day) It’s rly amazing reading your posts. Feel great to know there’s many of you who are also crazy about Midd Hope we’ll meet in Vermont next fall and be like “I know right! Midd is THE best”
I visited Midd twice and fell even more in love the second time. I applied ED while at the Middlebury Inn right after my last visit. I want to go so badly. No other college excited me like Midd.
Good luck to all of you- I hope some of us turn out to be MiddKids
