I agree you can spot the colleges that care about yield on Naviance. Then again, that would put them into the category of a college which must be visited, and to which you need to “demonstrate interest.”

I don’t know if I’d call it “just don’t care about their yield.” Some of the schools are notably selective. It’s more that they can make a rational guess as to where they stand in the pecking order. They may accept 12, for an average gain of 2-3 students. They don’t expect to get 12 students, but they also know that they have a good chance to catch some wonderful students.
