  9. Leading Colleges are NOT Concerned About Standards-based Grading Hanover Research Institute conducted a study on the relationship of standards-based grading and college admissions. Schools included in the study were Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, Cal Tech, Columbia, Duke, Brown, University of Chicago, Northwestern and other top ranked colleges and universities. “Generally, admissions offices treat all grades as welcome indicators of high school performance while implicitly acknowledging that every school has a unique perspective, student body and system. None of the college admissions offices contacted expressed a concern or negative view of a transcript based on standards-based grading.”
