International Students and Scholar Services (ISSS)

ISSS has been extremely busy these past couple of days, communicating with our international students and scholars regarding the ever-evolving COVID-19 situation. As valued members of the Middlebury College community, we want you to be aware of the latest developments on campus. The decision to move to remote learning took many of us by surprise and we are doing our best to communicate out to our many constituencies.

A number of you have reached out to us to ask how you can help with our coronavirus response. We so appreciate it. We’ve been moved by your willingness to pitch in and care for the community.
As Middlebury and the entire country take measures to deal with the coronavirus epidemic, we are aware that our students, prospective students, and wider community have questions about Language Schools programs for summer 2020.

We are dealing with extraordinary circumstances, at the Institute—and the world—and how the staff have taken the lead to rally us as a community, showing remarkable resourcefulness, positivity, and professionalism, is deeply heartening.
