<p>Lancestone: Correct that Wesleyan admissions are need-blind. However, the early decision pool may attract a higher proportion of families who don’t need as much financial help, because those accepted early obviously won’t have the opportunity to weigh aid offers from multiple schools.</p>
<p>Ashnazg: Being a legacy definitely helps you in the early decision round and it’s a plus for regular decision, too. That assumes, of course, that you have the academic record to qualify for admission anyway. Good luck!</p>
