How common is it to receive letter from admissions asking you to apply, out of the blue?

I didn’t realize the mailings couldn’t be recycled? I thought it was just paper…who knew?

I’m also one who also asked D to make sure she checked the box. We haven’t tired of receiving the mail, and if on the off-chance some schools track ‘interest’ by clicks on their email links, then that’s good. We click away on those that are interesting, and unsubscribe from the vast majority. No big deal. We also created a college email address, so either my D or I do this.
