Do college recruitment letters mean anything?

<p>I'm a sophomore currently and am in the top quarter of my class (not great, I know), and I constantly get recruitment letters from christian/private universities around the state. Do they mean anything? Should I be concerned that the type of universities I want to attend aren't mailing me anything?<br>
I guess while I'm asking I should ask how my GPA looks.. its a 3.6, though I do expect it to rise sharply after this semester.</p>

<p>Basically, it means they have your name and address.</p>

<p>Later on, you will get mail from colleges that are bigger and more famous. It will still mean that they have your name and address, and not much more.</p>

<p>Many times, they get your name and address because you checked a box on your PSAT registration that says you’d welcome mail from colleges.</p>
