How is Bennington perceived when applying for graduate school?

Hey.
So, I'm a high school senior who's mildly addicted to Bennington--it sounds freakishly idyllic to me! The optional grades, individualized course study, and discussion-based classes all appeal to me as a student, but I'm wondering how other higher education institutions feel about all this. Therefore, I ask: is Bennington thought to have serious, difficult programs of study, programs that would been viewed favorably at a highly selective graduate school, like Brown, Yale, Stanford, or NYU? Have any recent graduates had difficulty getting into a grad school and think that the nature of Bennington's unconventional curriculum is to blame?
Thank you and adieu, friends.

Eliot?

Bahaha, just kidding. (I meant as in Eliot Deutsch, a professor who often writes on Indian philosophy. )

Yes, someone answer please!
