[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It takes 5 seconds to unsubscribe. I'd start there. 99% of college emails have an unsubscribe button at the bottom. The vast majority then have the info already typed in and you just have to click (or unclick) the boxes. [/quote]

OP here revisiting this thread now that DC has been accepted ED. 
I told him my gift would be helping him unsubscribe 
Maybe it takes 5 seconds to unsub but multiply that with x number of schools. It took me a while.  
It was interesting to sort through the schools. Some were sending emails every 3-5 days.

Sharing this now that we know- 
With regards to the common app- it didn't matter what the email was. It was only used for logging in. The only email that came from the common app was to verify the email address.

Once you apply on the common app, there seem to be no other emails from the schools that DC applied to. 
After common app, the communication regarding the application moves to the portal of the school. DC didn't even get an email saying that the decision was posted on the portal.

DC has 2 email accounts and I was able to clean one up thoroughly-- next up on the influx will be scholarship applications. 
Lesson learned to manage the clutter!
