if you need lots of financial aid, the Early Desicion is binding, so no matter how much money they give you, you have to go.

A school will let you out of early decision if you claim financial hardship after you talk to their financial aid department and if you're unable to work something out with them.

You have a reasonable chance, so apply if you like Brandeis.
