How much of the class comes from ED
~73% of enrolled freshmen were admitted through Early Decision. Middlebury’s Common Data Set is marked preliminary, and its ED count leaves out February admits.
This is a share of the freshman class, not an admit rate.
† Regular round (est.) = (all admitted students − Early Decision admits) ÷ (all applicants − Early Decision applicants).
