<p>Good news for Waitlist as I will reject the offer from Midd. When I appplied I did not realize the stat game that Midds plays with no SAT scores from athletes etc. Also avoiding Duke as these scandals will tarnish my diploma & tuition investment. Good luck & do your homework!</p>

<p>arcadiot--i don't know where you're getting your information from, but Middlebury includes the SAT scores for all students in their common data set.</p>

<p>I'm in! and going!</p>

<p>3.63, 2270, great leadership, solid everything else.</p>

<p>Has anyone received their actual acceptance package in the mail yet? I thought i read on here somewhere that they send them via UPS....if thats the case I would think Id be getting mine here in ohio today. I know I was accepted online, i just wanna see what they send me!</p>

<p>i'm in CT and i got my midd folder in the mail today!</p>

<p>was it regular mail or UPS/fedex/ect...?</p>

<p>im in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO ECSTATIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was my favorite by far. i LOVE MIDDLEBURY!</p>

<p>but it seems like im the only one unhappy about my finaid packet. Does appealing work at all?!</p>
