Hey, does anyone know the acceptance rate for Middlebury's Early Decision admissions? I'm considering applying ED and want to assess my chances. Thanks!
Sure, I can help you with that. For Middlebury College, the Early Decision acceptance rate tends to be significantly higher than their overall acceptance rate. While the college's overall acceptance rate has been between 5-15% in recent years, the ED rate has been around 40%.
While this boost is certainly significant, keep in mind that applying Early Decision means you're committed to attend if accepted. Additionally, applying Early Decision may increase your chances of being admitted, but factors like your academics, extracurriculars, and essays ultimately play much bigger roles in determining your chances of acceptance. You still want to put together the most polished application possible, rather than counting on the ED bump alone.
Good luck with your application to Middlebury!
