You can check whether “level of applicant’s interest” is considered in section C7 of the college’s common data set, or in the admissions tab in its entry on http://www.collegedata.com .
Colleges usually consider that if they are not interested in being someone’s low-choice “safety”, so it is more of a concern if it looks like you are “overqualified” for the college.
