Which Colleges/Universities Issue A+'s?

<p>the title of this is pretty self-explanatory.</p>

<p>Presumably any where the student scores high enough. Admission to college should be your first priority.</p>

<p>Pretty sure mine doesn’t. If you look at the official notes on the transcript, it has what the GPAs are for each grade (including +/-) up through A, but no A+.
Heck, even at my high school teachers weren’t even sure whether they were allowed to give A+. In German I always got an A+, but in US history I didn’t, even though I had over 100% in the course.</p>

<p>But anyway, why does it matter if a college gives "A+"s?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Law schools count A+ grades as 4.33, even if your undergraduate school does not. So a pre-law student who attends a school that issues A+ grades and does well enough to earn A+ grades will have some advantage in law school admissions.

<p>Note, however, that medical schools do not count A+ grades any higher than A grades.

<p>I heard Cornell but I’m not 100% sure how true that is.</p>

<p>Here are a few if someone wants to run a list with links that verify. This doesn’t say how often A+ grades are actually handed out at these schools.</p>
