I am planning on transferring to UNC and just today decided to drop a class. Will one “W,” on my transcript affect my chances of getting in? Thanks!
Depends how the rest of your transcript looks. If you are a 4.0 student anyway, a W won’t hurt you, but if you have a pretty shoddy record, a W won’t help.
It sounds like this is your first W though, which is good.
Most students have a few Ws on their transcript, it’s not that big of a deal unless you have a bunch of them. Only have 2-3 max and it won’t be a huge concern.
