Why did you choose to attend Middlebury? I knew that I wanted to attend an academically rigorous college, but all too often, that academic rigor comes along with a competitive atmosphere. When I toured Middlebury, however, I was struck by how evident it was that there was a collaborative, friendly community. That environment, coupled with a stunning campus and easy access to the outdoors made choosing Middlebury a no-brainer!
