The Peace Corps Paul D. Coverdell Fellows Program named the Middlebury Institute of International Studies one of the top-enrolling institutions for the 2020–21 academic year.

The Paul D. Coverdell Fellows program is a fellowship program for returned Peace Corps volunteers that offers financial assistance to help cover fees and tuition.
