Most people you talk to who are still in school at Middlebury are more than satisfied with their college experience or else they wouldn’t be doling out the high tuition to come here. The academics are outstanding, though you may wonder where they’ll take you later. Students often wish they toiled less at the books and more at the booze, but the pristine facilities tend to distract from scholastic misery. Professors are brilliant, witty, and sympathetic, although there are some haughty bumps in the road. The on-campus social scene is lively and shot through with school spirit. The athletics put Middlebury at the top of its division, and the area is quaint (“quaint,” unfortunately, being the opposite of any adjective suggestive of “nightlife”). Middlebury provides an incredibly varied experience—an opportunity to stick your paintbrush in all shades of colors, so to speak. Students can leave Middlebury with seven different areas of study, visits to 10 foreign countries, and/or stories of rock climbing in New Zealand under their belts. Sure, you’ll inevitably take a class or two that ends up as the bane of your existence for a semester, and you will cringe at the titanic tuition bill every month, but the people you’ll meet and the places you’ll go will set your experience apart from those of other students in your high school’s graduating class. The daunting ambitions of others around you will provide a constant challenge to your own motivations, actions, and thoughts. Middlebury Student ReviewsWhat's This?Filter:

Not So Much
D-
There is not much, there is a 24 hour diner on the weekend, a sandwich shop, an Indian restaurant and a Chinese restaurant, but don't go on the look out for quality ethnic food, there is none. |

Now Thats What I Am Talking About!
A
Watch out freshman fifteen. At first one would assume that the average Middlebury kid should be fat, but alas, they are all as fit as could be. The food they provide dictates that there should be a much larger number of fat people, but the quality and health of the food allows you to pig out and still shape up. |
