is it really "need blind"?

<p>I jus tlooked on my penn portal.. and it actually lists that I am a non-financial aid candidate.. and you would think that during these tough economic times that they might actually take that into consideration this year. Because if you think about it, colleges invest a lot of their assets in order to grow their total money available for research and ect. so they are probably hurtin pretty bad right now.. i dunno hopefully I am wrong because need-blind admission is a very admirable part of the ivy league.. but ya gotta wonder</p>
