@mayzie.Nice of you. Our family visited both and would have been very pleased with either for our S. Cheers for your D on the Midd acceptance. Our S denied. At any rate, we found both Midd and P to be exceptional academically. Midd could stand alone and is always in the Top 10 - 15 of any reputable list and often higher… P needs the consortium to shine and that is fine by us. With Keck , Pitzer clearly has an edge in the sciences as we found. Midd as you may know is one of our nations oldest traditional LAC’s. Although it’s in the same " most selective " admissions category as Pitzer…Midds is more academically based as evidenced by the app SAT/GPA/ACT…Investigate the differences on any college site…Pitzer
must be using a more holistic admissions process. I don’t know if you have visited Midd but if not… It’s beautifully bucolic NE America with the Champlain Valley and Lake right there. Haven’t seen a more quaint college campus. Certainly seasonal… Very… With big snow in the winter which can be long indeed, yet pristine beautiful. Found the vibe to be classically academic with strong athletic emphasis and less of the more free spirited intellectual hippie culture that you might find at Pitzer…we found the P students to be serious and very socially conscious with a keen awareness of environmental and sustainability issues…
