To stop spam messages from colleges, you can try the following methods:

1. Unsubscribe or Opt Out

Look for an unsubscribe link in the emails or messages. Most legitimate institutions provide this.

Reply with “STOP” if it’s a text message and the sender is using a legitimate SMS service.

2. Mark as Spam

Mark emails from colleges as spam or junk in your email provider (e.g., Gmail, Outlook). This helps train the system to filter them automatically in the future.

3. Block Senders

Block specific email addresses or phone numbers that are repeatedly sending you messages.

4. Use Email Filters

Set up filters in your email to automatically delete or archive messages with specific keywords like "college", "admissions", or "scholarship".
