Gorgeous.

Middlebury has an amazing relationship with the town. The campus and its surrounding are gorgeous, moving to NY to work post graduation ( which is where most Mid students go) could be a shock having been used to so much natural beauty. Most items that a college student would require are very readily available.

Professors Are ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS

Class after class you will be stunned by the quality of the teachers here. They are extremely smart and care about you and your aspirations. You will become friends with most of your professors who will also in many cases become life long mentors. If this sounds too good to be true, come see for yourself that sometimes things are perfect and true. The course load is very challenging but from a college like Midd I wouldn't expect anything else. Work hard and you will learn and grow more than you thought possible.

Best Economics Program in the Country

The head of the economics department once wrote an article where he said that if the number of students studying economics were a guide to naming the college it would be the "Middlebury School of Economics". Williams has a department that is comparable but is very very left leaning while at Midd there is a nice balance. Absolutely fabulous teachers.

Dorms Like Palaces Indeed

Excellent Housing. You will be completely satisfied with your housing situation in any dorm. The only college I visited ( and I visited many) that had comparable ( and actually slightly better) dorms was Bowdoin. The take away message is: Housing is fabulous.
