DAT score reports and spam.

When I registered for the DAT i checked every school to recieve my score report. I'm only interested in about 10 schools but I checked them all just to be safe. Did anybody else do this and get spammed with mail from 60 or so schools (like senior yr). I realize that the admissions process is a racket and EVERYBODY wants an application fee. I didn't really think that through and would like to avoid it.

Did you get any spam or are you wonder if they sent you emails?

In any case I checked off every school and only got emails from schools I applied to. Well not all of them have sent me emails yet though.

I checked almost all of them but didn't get spammed from any school (maybe because my first dat attempt was a failure to most schools).

What I mean is my actual physical mailbox where I live. I don't care about email so much. I just hate having piles of mail

I wouldn't think you have to exactly smoke the DAT to get mail. I don't think any school is going to refuse to accept your check though if you want to apply, know what i mean?

Nope in either case. Most schools contact via email anyhow. Only a few go through regular mail. And unless you apply to them they won't bother. schools get plenty of applicants, they don't need to go out of their way to attract more people.

Checked all of the schools, but haven't received an email nor snail mail from any of them.

I did pretty good on the DAT too.

I haven't taken the test so I haven't received anything in the mail yet, but I anticipate getting a ghetto brochure from Creighton like my buddy did lol. He said their brochure was a few photocopied sheets of paper that were stapled together. How professional haha.
