Concerned about cost? So are we, and we are committed to making Middlebury College affordable for all students we admit, regardless of the resources of their families. What you need to know:
» Our "need-blind" admissions policy. The College follows a need-blind admission policy for domestic students, which means that a student's financial status does not influence the admission decision. Middlebury makes every effort to help all candidates obtain the financial aid they need in the form of grants, loans, and work/study jobs. In the case of international students, Middlebury follows a need-aware admissions policy.
» Middlebury will offer an aid package that meets 100 percent of your financial need as calculated by the Student Financial Services Office. If your family's financial situation does not change, we are committed to providing you a similar package each year that you attend Middlebury.
» All aid at Middlebury is based on financial need as determined by the Office of Student Financial Services.
» Last year Middlebury provided grant aid to more than 40 percent of the student body. For the incoming Class of 2013, the average grant amount was more than $30,000.
» Student loans that are part of the financial aid package are offered at graduated levels, depending on family income:
| - family income < $50,000: |
$1,000 per year |
| - family income $50,000 to $80,000: |
$2,000 per year |
| - family income > $80,000: |
$3,000 per year |
