"Q. Does indicating a preference for Feb increase the likelihood of admission?
A. No. The admissions committee strives for consistency in its assessment standards and a student’s preference is simply another piece of information for use by the admissions staff.

Q. Is being admitted as a Feb like being on the waiting list?
A. No. Febs receive full admission at the time of their notification. They simply begin their Middlebury experience in February rather than September."
