<p>There is no such thing as bad college literature. I love it all.</p>

<p>I actually ended up saving all the college literature I got in a box under my bed starting after the PSAT and weighed it after I graduated - turned out to be something like 85+ lbs of mail.</p>

<p>For me it's U of Portland. They send my house SOOO MUCH STUFF. For every 1 brochure I get from school A, I get 3 from U of Portland.
Creighton also sends me two copies of everything they send... it gets annoying</p>

<p>Wellesley sends me about 5 colorful books every week. And 15 emails.</p>

<p>fascinating thread….D, a HS junior, has received very little from WUSTL but loads from W&L, U of Chic, St Mary’s in California (we’re not Catholic), and Carroll College. The top emailers are Mount Holyoke, St. Mary’s, and Gonzaga.</p>

<p>NYU
Washington U
Case</p>

<p>and ALOT of colleges I've never heard of (or have barely heard of).</p>

27

<p>Agree, NYU has been sending info since son's junior year and he is now soph in college.</p>

28

<p>I've never received anything from WUSTL, NYU, or Evansville, but I get a lot from Randolph-Macon Woman's College (I am NOT interested in going there).</p>

<p>Wash U and NYU - hands down.
Who had the best mailings? I loved Oberlin's.</p>

<p>any state school in florida (central, southern, northern, and central again). i get about 3 emails a day from university of central florida. </p>

<p>tulane. apparently their deadline has been extended... about 7 times</p>

<p>I get a lot of stuff from Evansville. The killer though is Ohio Domican University. I get something from them it seems like 2-3 times a week as well as stuff from their students. Couple weeks ago I got something from these two parents from Florida who talked about how their kids went there, etc. Also, Upper Iowa University sent me a lot of stuff. They called and I flat-out told them I wasn't interested so it's stopped now. I'll get an email here and there. Saint Louis University sends me lots of emails; I can apply there w/o fees!:)</p>

<p>Oh, and I'm not applying to any of the above-mentioned schools. Out of the three schools I'm considering, only one sent me anything unrequested and it was only a couple of things. Two of these schools are state schools.</p>
