<p>I'm a high school junior, and having just gone on college visits I found myself most impressed with Swarthmore and Middlebury. I know both of them are very academically rigorous, but I don't know a whole lot about their student bodies. What are the students at both like/how do they differ? The differences between the two will probably decide which one I apply E.D. to. Thanks in advance for any advice you may be able to give!

<p>Although you’ll find every type of student at both schools, I’ll present you with the general stereotypes:</p>
<p>Swarthmore: introverts, intellectual, quirky/nerdy, competitive</p>
<p>Middlebury: extroverts, preppy, athletic, outdoorsy, environmentalist</p>
<p>Swarthmore looks toward the city, Midd towards the mountains!</p>
<p>Thanks a lot for the advice!</p>
