It’s even more confusing to the kids who have stats that are at Ivy/top school level. They have reason to think that the schools are actually recruiting them, and don’t know that their classmates with lower stats are getting the same junk mail.
And it’s surprising that some of these schools tout their commitment to the environment, LEED-certified buildings, composting toilets and yet are single-handedly slaying entire rainforests every week with all that mail!
