Having a really hard time deciding between these two.
Would prefer to go into consulting, but I'd content with IB/finance related stuff too.
I've visited both campuses, surprisingly loved both. Vandy is 10k a year cheaper, but Middlebury has the smaller classes that I enjoy.
Where should I go? I want a good liberal arts education, a social student body, and most importantly, great job placement into top firms.

Vandy!
why vandy over middlebury? just want as much reasoning and analysis as I can get.
Try to get people's opinions on Middlebury's social scene and placement. Everyone will tell you Vandy will be fun and has a great social scene. They will also tell you Middlebury provides a great liberal arts education. You know that too. Try to find out more beyond this.
Vandy oc
can u add more - why vandy plz
Attending an elite school while getting to live in Nashville, TN for four years? Seems like an easy choice
Is there that much clown presents? Millbury is a top-tier liberal arts school and Vanderbilt is not yet Elite
I know both of these schools are good options. I want some more specific knowledge/data on OCR, placement, etc.
Vandy will be more fun, but Midd will provide a unique college experience where you get to personally know a lot of people/professors. I'd give the edge to Midd for IB as well.
I would say Middlebury for sure although Vandy is a good choice too. From what I've heard the head of S&T at Morgan Stanley is Middlebury alumni. It's a small school that will have a good alumni base for IB.
Can't go wrong with either you'd just have to go with your gut on what feels right.
Vandy will be more fun(Nashville is a great town) but placement will probably be a little weaker than Middlebury and small classes/education won't be quite as good either.
Middlebury will still be fun, but it'll be a different social scene. You won't be going out to the bars on the a weekend it'll be dorm/greek parties. With that being said, the community will be more tight knit and the academics are top notch. Plus Middlebury is an elite LAC and will place you into pretty much whatever you want to do.
Depends on what kind of person you are and what you want your experience to be like. Are you a super social guy who loves sports, having a good time, and still wants a pretty good academic experience?
Or are you someone who might enjoy a little more quiet time, doesn't care as much about the nightlife scene, and will really enjoy a small classroom environment and a top notch Liberal Arts education?
