Tons of colleges trying to contact you through (e)mail

<p>Maybe its because I'm a senior now but I'm getting more and more stuff like letter of recommendation forms and a scholar form.I think they got my info from college board but I want it to stop since I'm not going out of state or even to a 4yr.</p>

<p>I<code>m only s sophomore and get TONS of stuff from colleges (via snail mail). I wouldn</code>t even mind it if it was from schools I<code>m interested in, or actual information, but it</code>s always the little cards saying to come vist. Go figure I never get anything from places I want to go to.</p>

<p>Yeah I get a ton too, I have been consistently getting more each year, most of the stuff is from schools I have no desire to attend, oh well…</p>

<p>@CE527M: I’m a senior, but I feel the exact same way! I think I’ve probably gotten something from every single college in the state except UNC. I know it doesn’t mean anything at all; I just find it a bit funny.</p>

<p>It’s usually from the PSAT. Protip: for colleges you are obviously not interested in: unsubscribe. It will be easier than getting 5-10 more emails.</p>

<p>@johnathan…I<code>ve received almost everything from my state except UVA…but yet I</code>ve received things from University of Hawaii…if it<code>s like this now I just can</code>t WAIT until senior year. </p>

<p>@OtherWindow…Thanks for the tip!</p>

<p>I don’t want it to stop because getting one from a college I want to attend makes me feel good about myself (as sad as that may sound haha). I covered the walls in my room with them which had the unintentional effect of making it look like a serial killer’s room or something.</p>

<p>Meh. </p>

<p>Does anyone feel like better colleges start mailing you as your SAT score gets better?</p>

<p>Ever since I broke the 2100 mark I’ve only been getting mail from the Ivies… go figure</p>

<p>I took the PSAT last year and it took around 8 months for it to stop! And I’m about to take it again in a month(junior) and I am planning to take the SAT 2-3 times in the spring…they will never go away O_O and at ^^ I got mail from an Ivy school but didn’t take the SAT, it also depends on your info that you put down.</p>

<p>I get a few from Mills but I think its because I went to a workshop there in middle school…most of the colleges are out of state or private (Christian) colleges.
Non of my friends complain about it but I guess they didn’t fill the contact portion out like I did.</p>

<p>Definitely going to plant a tree to offset all the paper after this whole process is over…</p>
