So last semester i had to drop 2 classes with W’s due to some unfortunate family issues and this semester i had to drop another 2 because i bit off way more than i could chew when it came to the work load. My dream school is UCLA but these 4 W’s i have are really tearing down my hope of getting accepted. :-S Its still my freshman year, next semester ill be a sophomore and my GPA is still standing good at an overall 3.67 but i know i can get it over a 3.75~3.99 in the coming semesters. How much are these 4 W’s actually going to impact my chances of getting into UCLA/any UC for that matter? Thanks.
It should be okay. Just explain the family situation, etc. In general they’re pretty easy-going (meaning they don’t care), unless they’re all major courses in a super super selective major, which may make them momentarily pause. But even then, it’s probably no biggie.
