What the “middle 50%” actually means

These are not cutoffs. The 25th percentile (1450 SAT / 33 ACT) means a quarter of admitted students scored at or below it, and the 75th percentile (1530 SAT / 35 ACT) means a quarter scored at or above it. Half of admitted students land inside the range — and students are admitted both below and above it every year, because scores are only one part of the application.

Middlebury College is test-optional

Middlebury College does not require an SAT or ACT score, but will consider one if you submit it. Because the range below reflects students who chose to submit, a score at or above the 25th percentile (1450 SAT / 33 ACT) generally strengthens your application — while a lower score is usually better left off.

What SAT score do I need for Middlebury College?+
