Optional Fields
The College follows a need-blind admission policy for domestic students, which means that a student's financial status does not influence the admission decision. Middlebury makes every effort to help all candidates obtain the financial aid they need in the form of grants, loans, and work/study jobs once they are accepted. Middlebury will offer an aid package that meets 100 percent of a student’s financial need as calculated by the Student Financial Services Office. Additionally, the maximum amount of loans given to a student is based on the family’s annual income so that students do not acquire loans beyond their family’s means.
