Bard’s film department is nationally known. It is also competitive - not every student who wants to moderate into the program for a major is accepted. The film department does have a particular aesthetic and focus, which as a prospective student you should research.[Film and Electronic Arts | Bard College](http://film.bard.edu) Bard is also very welcoming to international students, and they do provide financial aid. This year’s freshman class is listed as 23% international/dual from 48 countries.

If you need financial aid, I don’t recommend applying ED anywhere. You’re committing without knowing whether you could get a better financial aid package elsewhere, and you have no bargaining power by comparing one school’s offer to another. Why not just apply regular decision to Conn College?
