Why is it that my friends are all receiving letters from colleges?

the majority of my friends have a 2.5 gpa and take regular classes.. while I have a 3.5-3.8 gpa and take Pre AP and AP classes.. why did they receive multiple letters(5-10) and i didn’t receive a single one? none of them applied for letters

Answer #1

Well if they have an account on websites like Collegeboard or fastweb, colleges find them through there and send either emails or letters to them to let these individuals know that they exist.

But if you’re worried, don’t be. It’s a simple marketing tactic and colleges will send those types of things to anyone for a simple reason: the more students that apply to their school that they can reject, they better the school will look.

Answer #2

Truth is, colleges aren’t going to tell everybody to apply to their school (even if you have a good GPA). It’s important to step in yourself. Don’t wait for them to reach to you! Try to call different colleges, visit the campus, ask questions and fill in applications. College life is a really different and competitive from high school. The letters to your friends could be just advertising.
