PROXY STATEMENT

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON APRIL 23, 1998

This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card are being
furnished to stockholders of WSFS Financial Corporation (the "Company") by the
Board of Directors in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at the
Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held on April 23, 1998, and
at any adjournments or postponements thereof (the "Annual Meeting"). This Proxy
Statement and the accompanying proxy card are first being mailed to stockholders
on or about March 20, 1998.

VOTING AND REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES

Proxies solicited by the Board of Directors of the Company will be
voted in accordance with the directions given therein. Where no instructions are
indicated, proxies will be voted FOR the nominees for directors as set forth
below. The proxy confers discretionary authority on the persons named therein to
vote with respect to the election of any person as a director where the nominee
is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, and with respect to matters
incident to the conduct of the Annual Meeting. If any other business is
presented at the Annual Meeting, proxies will be voted by those named therein in
accordance with the determination of a majority of the Board of Directors.
Proxies marked as abstentions will not be counted as votes cast. In addition,
shares held in street name which have been designated by brokers on proxy cards
as not voted will not be counted as votes cast. Proxies marked as abstentions or
as broker no votes will be treated as shares present for purposes of determining
whether a quorum is present.

Stockholders who execute proxies retain the right to revoke them at any
time. Unless so revoked, the shares represented by properly executed proxies
will be voted at the Annual Meeting and any adjournments or postponements
thereof. Proxies may be revoked by written notice to the Secretary of the
Company at the address above or by the filing of a later dated proxy prior to a
vote being taken on the proposal at the Annual Meeting. A proxy will not be
voted if a stockholder attends the Annual Meeting and votes in person. The
presence of a stockholder at the Annual Meeting will not revoke such
stockholder's proxy.

VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

The securities entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting consist of the
Company's common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"). The close
of business on March 9, 1998 has been fixed as the record date for determination
of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting (the
"Record Date"). As of the Record Date, the Company had outstanding 12,464,479
shares of Common Stock, the holders of which are entitled to one vote for each
share of Common Stock held except in elections of directors, in which holders
have cumulative voting rights.

Stock Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners

Persons and groups beneficially owning in excess of 5% of the Common
Stock are required to file certain reports with respect to such ownership
pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"). The following table sets forth, as of the Record Date, certain
information as to those persons who have filed the reports required of persons
beneficially owning more than 5% of the Common Stock or who were known to the
Company to beneficially own more than 5% of the Company's Common Stock
outstanding at the Record Date.

Amount and Nature
of Beneficial Percent
Name Ownership (1) of Class
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

John W. Rollins, Sr. (2) 1,476,643 shares 11.85%
Wellington Management Company, LLP (3) 975,900 shares 7.83%
Fidelity Management & Research Company (4) 708,500 shares 5.68%

(1) In accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, a person is
deemed to be the beneficial owner, for purposes of this table, of any
shares of Common Stock if he or she has or shares voting or investment
power with respect to such Common Stock or has a right to acquire
beneficial ownership at any time within 60 days from the Record Date.
As used herein, "voting power" is the power to vote or direct the
voting of shares and "investment power" is the power to dispose or
direct the disposition of shares. Except as otherwise noted, ownership
is direct, and the named individuals and group exercise sole voting
power over the shares of the Common Stock.

(2) John W. Rollins, Sr. owns 1,186,743 shares of Common Stock individually
and has sole voting and investment power with respect to these shares.
The amount shown in the table includes 130,000 shares owned by a
company which is wholly-owned by Mr. Rollins and 159,900 shares of
Common Stock owned by his wife, Michele M. Rollins, a director of the
Company, who has sole voting and investment power with respect to the
159,900 shares. Mr. and Mrs. Rollins have entered into an agreement
with the Office of Thrift Supervision of the U.S. Department of the
Treasury ("OTS") for the purpose of rebutting the regulatory
presumption that they would be in control of the Company by virtue of
their ownership of more than 10% of the Company's outstanding stock
(the "Rebuttal Agreement"). The Rebuttal Agreement limits Mr. and Mrs.
Rollins to one representative on the Board of Directors (which
representative may not be the chairman of the board or president of the
Company) and one additional representative who may attend meetings of
the board of directors but may not vote therein or function as a
director; prohibits them from engaging in intercompany transactions
with the Company or its affiliates; limits their ability to engage in
proxy solicitations; and prevents them from attempting to influence
management policies or business operations of the Company except as
incident to their performance of their duties as a director. Under OTS
regulations, Mr. and Mrs. Rollins cannot take any of the foregoing
actions or increase their ownership above 25% without an additional
filing with the OTS. The address of Mr. Rollins is One Rollins Plaza,
Post Office Box 1026, Wilmington, Delaware 19899.

(3) The address of Wellington Management Company, LLP is 75 State Street,
Boston Massachusetts 02109.

(4) The address of Fidelity Management and Research Company is 82
Devonshire Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.

PROPOSAL 1 -- ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The number of directors is currently fixed at nine members. The Board
of Directors is divided into three classes. The members of each class are
elected for a term of three years and until their successors are elected and
qualified; provided that in the event the number of directors has been increased
during the preceding year and such new directorships have been filled by action
of the Board of Directors, the terms of those newly appointed directors expire
at the annual meeting when the class to which they have been elected expires.
Each of the current members of the Board of Directors of the Company also serves
on the Board of Directors of the Company's principal subsidiary, Wilmington
Savings Fund Society, Federal Savings Bank ("WSFS" or the "Bank"). In accordance
with the Delaware General Corporation Law, directors of the Company will be
elected by a plurality vote of the outstanding shares of Common Stock present in
person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting.

Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, every stockholder voting
for the election of directors is entitled to cumulate his votes by multiplying
his shares times the number of directors to be elected. Each stockholder will be
entitled to cast his votes for one director or distribute his votes among any
number of the nominees being voted on at the Annual Meeting. The Board of
Directors intends to vote the proxies solicited by it equally among the three
nominees for the Board of Directors. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes
on the form of proxy solicited by the Board of Directors. In order to cumulate
votes, stockholders must attend the meeting and vote in person or make
arrangements with their own proxies. Unless otherwise specified in the proxy,
however, the right is reserved, in the sole discretion of the Board of
Directors, to distribute votes among some or all of the nominees of the Board of
Directors in a manner other than equally so as to elect as directors the maximum
possible number of such nominees.

At the Annual Meeting, three directors will be elected for terms of
three years each and until their successors have been elected and qualified. The
Board of Directors has nominated Thomas P. Preston, Marvin N. Schoenhals and R.
Ted Weschler, all of whom are currently directors, for election as directors at
the Annual Meeting. If any nominee is unable to serve, the shares represented by
all properly executed proxies will be voted for the election of such substitute
as the Board of Directors may recommend or the Board of Directors may reduce the
number of authorized directors to eliminate the vacancy.

Directors and Nominees

The following table sets forth for each nominee and each director
continuing in office, his or her name, age (as of December 31, 1997), year first
elected as a director of WSFS, year of expiration of his or her current term as
a director of the Company, his or her principal occupation for at least the last

Personnel and Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation

Overview and Philosophy. The Company's executive compensation program
is administered by the Personnel and Compensation Committee (the "Personnel
Committee") of the Board of Directors. The Committee's responsibilities include
reviewing and making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding
compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and reviewing and approving the
compensation paid to other executive officers of the Company listed in the
"Summary Compensation Table" that follows this report (the "Named Executive
Officers"). The committee also administers stock option and incentive plans and
assures compliance with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

The objective of the compensation program is to establish levels of
compensation sufficient to attract and retain highly qualified and motivated
executives. The program also seeks to align the interests of the Company's
executive management with those of stockholders through the use of incentive
based compensation for specific performance based criteria and stock based
compensation for long-term stockholder value.

Compensation Program Elements. The Company's executive compensation
program consists of base salaries, a short-term cash incentive plan, a stock
option plan and miscellaneous other fringe benefits.

Base Salary. Base salary levels are determined by the
Committee with reference to corporate and individual performance in
relation to strategic goals established each year, competitive market
trends and special circumstances particular to the Company's staffing
needs. In determining base salaries, the committee refers to data
obtained from nationally recognized compensation surveys as well as
information from similar sized banks and thrifts in the Mid-Atlantic
region.

Short-Term Incentive Plan. In 1994, the Personnel Committee of
the Board of Directors approved a Management Incentive Plan (MIP)
designed to reward the accomplishment of specific annual financial
objectives. These objectives for 1997 were profitability,
capitalization and reductions in nonperforming asset levels. Plan
participants include members of management as designated from
time-to-time by the Committee. A "bonus pool" is established under the
MIP each year. The pool size is generally considered to equal 20% of
the growth in pretax earnings. Final determination of the "bonus pool,"
is subject to adjustment by the Committee based upon the nature and the
quality of pretax earnings.

Individual awards are earned for successfully completing
agreed-upon objectives as well as the individual's contribution to the
Company's financial performance. All of the "Named Executive Officers"
(including the CEO) are eligible to receive such awards. Total awards
accrued under the MIP in 1997 were approximately $1,100,000. Such
awards, however, may not be paid unless the levels of nonperforming
assets are 2% or less of total consolidated assets. All awards under
the MIP are paid in cash and have been paid since nonperforming asset
levels were less than 2% of total assets at December 31, 1997.

Stock Options and SARs. As a performance incentive and to
encourage ownership of the Common Stock and further align the interests
of management and stockholders, the Committee has issued stock options
and stock appreciation rights (SARs) under the 1986 and 1997 Stock
Option Plans ("Stock Option Plans"). The 1986 Stock Option Plan expired
in November 1996. The Committee issued 78,700 stock options in 1997
under the 1997 Stock Option Plan. The Committee periodically reviews
and awards stock options and/or SARs to management based on factors it
deems important; however, the Committee does not intend to issue awards
on an annual basis.

Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. For fiscal year 1997, Mr.
Schoenhals earned $260,400 in base salary. Mr. Schoenhals' base salary has been
set at that level for the past four fiscal years reflecting the desire of the
Personnel Committee and Mr. Schoenhals to base a greater portion of his
compensation on awards under the Company's performance-based incentive programs.
In this regard, Mr. Schoenhals earned a $202,000 bonus for fiscal year 1997
under the MIP which bonus was paid after the end of the fiscal year. As
described above, the size of the MIP bonus pool is generally set as a percentage
of the Company's growth in pre-tax earnings during the year. The bonus awarded
to Mr. Schoenhals under the MIP reflects the Company's achievement of specific
financial goals for the 1997 fiscal year as well as the Personnel Committee's
assessment of Mr. Schoenhals' contribution to the achievement of those goals.
Factors considered by the Personnel Committee in assessing Mr. Schoenhals'
contribution included his leadership role in formulating and executing the
Company's business strategy. In addition to the foregoing cash compensation, Mr.
Schoenhals was awarded options to purchase 16,600 shares of the Common Stock
under the 1997 Stock Option Plan, representing 21.1% of the options granted to
employees during the year. The foregoing options vest and become exercisable at
the rate 20% per annum beginning one year after the date of grant. The Personnel
Committee believes that the grant of options will, among other things, create
additional incentive to create long-term value for stockholders.

Compensation Committee Interlock and Insider Participation. During
fiscal year 1997, no members of the Personnel Committee were considered insiders
nor were there any interlocking relationships or relationships with the Company
other than as disclosed in the "Business Relationships and Related Transactions"
section of this Proxy Statement.

EMPLOYMENT AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS

The Company had entered into an employment agreement with Mr.
Schoenhals for a period of thirty-six months, beginning May 1, 1993. In 1995 the
term of this agreement was extended to August 1, 1998 and in April 1997 the term
was extended to May 1, 2000. The agreement provides for the employment of Mr.
Schoenhals as Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer at a current base
salary of $260,400, as maintained, increased or decreased from time-to-time by
the Board. The employment agreement further provides for participation by Mr.
Schoenhals in incentive compensation and other employee benefit plans maintained
by the Company. In the event of Mr. Schoenhals' involuntary termination of
employment in connection with, or within one year after, any change in control
of the Bank or the Company, other than for "just cause," he will be paid within
10 days of such termination an amount equal to 2.99 times his annual salary at
the rate in effect immediately prior to termination provided that the aggregate
amount payable under the agreement may not equal or exceed the difference
between (i) 2.99 times his "base amount," as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), and (ii) the sum of any other
parachute payments, as defined under Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, that Mr.
Schoenhals receives on account of a change in control. "Control" generally
refers to the acquisition, by any person or entity, of the ownership or power to
vote more than 25% of the Bank's or Company's voting stock, the control of the
election of a majority of the Bank's or the Company's directors or the exercise
of a controlling influence over the management or policies of the Bank or the
Company. In addition, under the employment agreement, a change in control occurs
when, during any consecutive two-year period, directors of the Company or the
Bank at the beginning of such period cease to constitute two-thirds of the Board
of Directors of the Company or the Bank, unless the election of replacement
directors was approved by two-thirds vote of the initial directors then in
office. The employment agreement also provides for a similar lump sum payment to
be made in the event of Mr. Schoenhals' voluntary termination of employment
within 30 days of a change in control or one year following a change in control
if certain events have occurred, which have not been consented to in writing by
Mr. Schoenhals, including (i) Mr. Schoenhals being requested to move his
personal residence or perform his principal executive functions more than 35
miles from his current primary office, (ii) a reduction in his compensation and
benefits as then in effect, (iii) the assignment of duties and responsibilities
to Mr. Schoenhals which are other than those normally associated with his
position with the Company and the Bank, (iv) a material decrease in his
authority and responsibility, or (v) failing to re-elect him to the Company's or
the Bank's Board of Directors. The maximum aggregate payments that would be made
to Mr. Schoenhals assuming his termination of employment under the foregoing
circumstances at December 31, 1997 would have been approximately $779,000
without regard to the limitations imposed by Section 280G of the Code.

WSFS also has entered into severance agreements with Messrs. R. William
Abbott, Karl L. Johnston and Joseph M. Murphy, which provide for severance
benefits of one-times base salary to be paid in lump sums to the executives in
the event of termination without cause. The amounts payable to the executives
under these agreements if they had been terminated without cause during fiscal
year 1997 would have been approximately $141,000, $160,000 and $160,000,
respectively. Furthermore, in the event of a change in control that results in
the loss of job or a significant change in responsibilities, the agreements of
Messrs. Johnston and Murphy provide for the guaranteed payout of two times their
base salaries at the time, to the extent the benefits of acceleration of vesting
of stock options granted them on their starting with the Company do not equal
two times their base salary. In each case this would result in a maximum benefit
of $320,000, based on current salaries. An agreement with Mr. Thomas E.
Stevenson provides for continuation of his salary (currently $125,000 per year)
for a period of 18 months following a change in control leading to the
elimination of his position or a significant change in responsibilities.

BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Thomas P. Preston, a director of the Company, is a partner with the
Wilmington, Delaware office of the law firm of Duane, Morris & Heckscher. The
law firm represented the Company and its affiliates in certain matters during
fiscal year 1997 and expects to continue such representation in fiscal year
1998.

On January 31, 1997, the Company repurchased 385,409 shares of the
Common Stock from Quad-C, Inc. for $11.125 per share for a total consideration
of approximately $4.3 million. The price paid by the Company represented a
discount in an amount commensurate with the discount expected for the sale of a
sizable block of shares to the average of the bid and asked price for the Common
Stock on the day as quoted on NASDAQ. Prior to such purchase, Quad-C, Inc. had
been the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Common Stock. In addition, Mr.
R. Ted Weschler, a director of the Company, serves as an executive officer of
Quad-C, Inc. and holds a 15% ownership position in Quad-C, Inc.

Certain directors and executive officers of the Company and their
associates were customers of and had transactions with the Company and the Bank
in the ordinary course of business during fiscal year 1997. Similar transactions
may be expected to take place with the Company and the Bank in the future. Loans
and commitments included in such transactions were made on substantially the
same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the
time for comparable transactions with other persons and did not involve more
than the normal risk of collectibility, nor did such loans present other
unfavorable features.

-17-

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors of the Company expects to appoint KPMG Peat
Marwick LLP as independent auditors of the Company for the year ended December
31, 1998. KPMG Peat Marwick LLP has served as the Company's independent auditors
since 1994. A representative of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP is expected to be present
at the Annual Meeting to respond to appropriate questions and will have the
opportunity to make a statement if the representative desires to do so.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Pursuant to regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, the
Company's officers and directors and all persons who beneficially own more than
ten percent of the Common Stock ("Reporting Persons") are required to file
reports detailing their ownership and changes of ownership in the Common Stock
and to furnish the Company with copies of all such ownership reports that are
filed. Based solely on the Company's review of the copies of such ownership
reports which it has received in the past fiscal year or with respect to the
past fiscal year, or written representations from the Reporting Persons that no
annual reports of changes in beneficial ownership were required, the Company
believes that during fiscal year 1997 and prior fiscal years all Reporting
Persons have complied with these reporting requirements with the exception of
the late filing of a Form 3 for Mr. Johnston.

ADVANCE NOTICE OF CERTAIN MATTERS
