I was very surprised when Harvard sent an application to my daughter after her PSAT results came in-- I never recall signing any release of her information to anyone



there is a check box on the exam form asking your D if she wants to be considered for “opportunities” based on her scores. the rest is straight up marketing.

If you apply RD, the list of colleges you are applying to are on the FAFSA which if you are applying to a need aware/need sensistive school, they may see where else you are applying. Since the ivies are “need blind” the admissions and financial aid office are in 2 separate places so this does not happen.

The Ivies do share information especially concerning SCEA and ED applications where if a student violates the agreements, they would most likely be rejected or have the admission rescinded.
