D15 also looked most closely between Midd and Bowdoin. I think the above assessment is pretty accurate. Both campuses have a very similar culture. I agree biggest differences seem to campus size and location (Bowdoin is more suburban than it is rural). She knew it was splitting hairs to some degree trying to decide between the two. For my D she eventually chose Midd over Bowdoin for ED because she liked Midd’s mountainous location better and she liked the bigger campus. She preferred the academic calendar with a January term over Bowdoin’s straight two semester system. She was drawn to Midd’s dance department and its environmental studies department. She is thriving at Middlebury, has truly found a home.
