I presume they still do, but when I went to college, most subscribed to the SAT (probably ACT, too) scores. If you had reasonable scores, particularly if you fit a demographic they wanted, you landed on their marketing lists.

Some schools apparently just send to an entire high-school mailing list, too. My mentally retarded son gets occasional information mailings from colleges ... but more often from for-profit schools.
