Middlebury Handbook

A student who has been admitted to a graduate degree program and wishes to change to a different graduate degree program should contact their academic advisor to discuss eligibility and possible implications for degree requirements and degree completion.  Following this discussion, students will apply for the new degree program through Admissions. A new study plan, including confirmation of any previous courses taken and how they may apply (or not) towards the new program must be approved by the Associate Dean of Academic Operations.   

NOTE: Due to the announced closure of academic programs at the Institute, requests for degree program changes will only be considered in cases where a student can complete all degree requirements by the end of the spring 2027 semester.
