There was no particular class associated with nuns in the Middle Ages. Nuns were not technically members of the clergy, even if they were highly educated. They could have come from backgrounds that were peasant, noble, or even royal. But technically, they had no class. Perhaps this would make them fit some definitions of the middle class, but middle class implies things that do not fit well with what a nun was.
