Hi all! I'm interested in applying to Middlebury College, and I was wondering if they track demonstrated interest. Should I try to attend virtual events, reach out to admissions, or do anything else to show I'm really interested in their school?
Hi! According to Middlebury, the school does not track demonstrated interest. That being said, they still encourage students to engage with the college in some way, such as by emailing their admissions counselor, participating in online or in-person visits, interviewing, etc., in order to learn more about the college.
Remember that your academic performance, extracurricular activities, and overall application strength hold more weight in the decision-making process than demonstrated interest, so focus on presenting the strongest application possible.
In summary, it's a good idea to attend virtual events and learn more about Middlebury to enhance your application, but don't stress too much about demonstrated interest. Concentrate on showcasing your fit for the college through your essays and the strengths of your overall application. Good luck with your application!
