Early Decision  ·  Middlebury  ·  2025-26 Common Data Set

Should you apply Early Decision to Middlebury?

Middlebury admitted 39.0% of its Early Decision applicants, against 9.9% of everyone else who applied. Those are its own figures, for students who applied to enter in fall 2025.

Admit rates computed from Middlebury's own counts in its 2025-26 Common Data Set (sections C1 and C21), for applicants who entered in fall 2025. Everyone else is all admits minus ED admits, over all applications minus ED applications. ED applicants deferred and later admitted stay in the admits, so that figure runs slightly high and the gap slightly small. Schools also differ in whether ED II is counted in their ED figures.

What the gap means

The Early Decision pool is not a random slice of applicants. Recruited athletes, for example, are commonly asked to apply early. No school publishes the gap with them taken out, so the gap is not the effect of applying Early Decision by itself.

Test scores of enrolled students

Middle 50% of enrolled first-years who submitted scores (section C9). 33% submitted the SAT, 16% the ACT.
