I’M SO EXCITED TO GET INTO MIDDLEBURY! but i’m not sure if i’ll go, i got accepted into some other pretty badass ones.
also: college process is soooo subjective. i got into columbia and middlebury, but i was rejected at vassar and uchicago, and waitlisted at emory. i think my acceptance also had to do with the fact that, when the international rep came to my school, we had an AMAZING chat and my college counselor said i’d be a great match for his school. pretty sure i was VERY MUCH a borderline candidate.
oh yea, i also got $36,000!
