Where can I find Middlebury supplemental essay prompts, and do they change from year to year?

The best place to find Middlebury’s official supplemental essay prompts is its first-year application page and the Middlebury member section of the Common App once the new application cycle opens. If you want the most reliable version, check the Common App directly because that is where you will actually submit the responses.

Yes, the prompts can change from year to year. Sometimes the changes are small, like wording tweaks or a different short-answer option, and sometimes a school adds, removes, or reshapes a prompt more noticeably. Middlebury often keeps a similar overall style, but you should not assume an older prompt will stay exactly the same.

Older prompts can still be useful for early brainstorming because they help you see the kind of themes Middlebury tends to ask about.

A practical approach is to look at last year’s prompts now for idea generation, then re-check Middlebury’s official admissions page and your Common App account.
