I receive information from NYU through mail and email does that mean they have an interest in me? I don’t know if when you pick desired colleges through the SAT search if it was there choice or not to send info.
Hi @softlace - mostly, receiving college marketing materials just means a school thinks you might be interested in applying. Some schools even send them out to people who have zero chance of admission an an effort to boost their admissions exclusivity ratio… happily NYU isn’t one of those. It’s pretty much not “a sign” of anything. If they start wooing you with scholarships - that’s a sign! 
Good Luck!!!
