<p>According to this thread on the Wesleyan CC Forum, the numbers may be even higher than the original <em>Argus</em> article indicated, i.e., a 16% increase in applications, from 364 last year to 421 this year:

Possible factors could be Wesleyan's inclusion among the top ten LACs in this year's USNews poll, renewed interest in slightly larger LACs like Colgate, Oberlin and Wesleyan and a vigorous Connecticut economy that has had an extreme make-over effect on downtown Middletown.</p>

<p>hmm... if a lot of other kids are applying shouldn't the ED applications have gone up??
From my personal perspctive, ED is not such a good idea for most kids worried about the college costs. Instead, average applications per kid may be higher this year so that chances of getting in 'somewhere' improve.</p>
