Congratulations on your decision to attend Middlebury College!

First@Midd is a pre-orientation program that provides support to incoming students who are first-generation college students. A first-generation (first-gen) college student is defined as a student whose parent(s)/legal guardian(s) have not completed a bachelor's degree. This means that they are the first in their family to attend a four-year college/university.

The First@Midd program is focused on acquainting you with many useful resources and offices at Middlebury, helping you navigate the sometimes complicated social and academic aspects of college life, and connecting you to members of our community who may be key to your success. The program will start on Wednesday, August 28 with official check-in and ends on Sunday, September 1.

During First@Midd, you will participate in activities, workshops, and educational and social events that will allow you to have fun meeting other students, while also preparing you for the transition to college life. Our goal is to help you build community, forge relationships, and learn some skills and strategies that can make your first year successful and enjoyable.

**There are no additional fees for this program. You will be housed in your room assignment for the academic year.
