<p>I am currently a undergrad student at ucsd. I took a course this summer at community college to fulfill breadth requirements and was forced to drop it and receive a "W" (withdrawal) grade because I now have to go to the east coast for the last week of the course for family (I did not know about this when i registered).</p>
<p>Will this hurt me? will ucsd find out about it? I never told them that i was taking this course. Will this W haunt me when I apply to grad school three years from now? Can I simply avoid it by never taking a class there again?</p>
<p>I think your integrity is worth more than worrying about a W in a community college course. Don't stress - send in the transcript and move on. I don't think anybody will care.</p>
<p>since its a cc class, i dont think youll be screwed, i guess you just wont get credit for it. id send in the transcript especially if they know youre taking the class.</p>
<p>i took a calc class between HS and college and got a C- in it ... never told UCSD, and i came in as a freshman, repeated the class, and got an A+. they'll never know, and have no right to poke around for your academic record at other institutions if you didn't grant them permission to do so.</p>
<p>ok good. thank you astrina, thats a big relief. </p>
<p>Speaking of calc, and seeing that you are an alumni, do you know if there is many people that complete the 10 series and go on to take 20 series? I thinking about changing my major.</p>
