Will schools actually compare based on other offers?

Middlebury’s Feb admits graduate in February and not December and the program is not at all similar to Hamilton’s Jan program. Almost 100% of the Middlebury Feb fresh graduate with their ~100 February classmates. The Febs also have a structured and legendary graduation ceremony.

Each winter, the College holds a unique ceremony for its Febs. During February Celebration, just over 100 seniors make their way down the trails at the Middlebury College Snow Bowl in their caps and gowns. Many ski or snowboard down the mountain, while others walk or snowshoe, as their friends and family below cheer them on. It’s a wonderful sight!
