<p>It took my five seconds to prove myself wrong. You guys know how to use google, right? </p>

<p>According to this policy, (granted I did not read every schools’ individual policy) I do not see any category that W’s would fall into. </p>

<p>So, OP I think it is safe to say your W’s will not affect your chances.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Yes, because graduate schools care sooo much about Ws in your first two years of college, especially community college. Because these Ws, no matter what gpa or stats you receive thereafter, are the best indication of your success as a graduate student.</p>

<p>Come on.</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it, one of your W’s was in a non-credit class anyway. Nothing to worry about.</p>

<p>This is all I could find about W’s affecting graduate school admissions. It was from the University of Minnesota.</p>

<p>–What about W’s on my transcript? Do they hurt my chances of getting into graduate school?</p>

<p>One or two W grades, or one semester of W’s, shouldn’t hurt, although it’s important to know what a W grade means at the institution where the W was posted. At the UMTC, a W grade is neutral, meaning only that you withdrew from a class after the second week of the term. Some institutions use a W, or a variation of a W, that may indicate failure at the time of withdrawal. You may want to address the reason (for example, illness during the middle of the semester as a reason for a term of W grades) in an addendum to your application or personal statement. A pattern of W’s, either for a whole term or individual courses, or in courses in your proposed graduate major, could raise questions.</p>
