<p>Would 14 withdrawals on transcript have an impact on employment opportunities? </p>
<p>Should I address them in the cover letter/statement of interest or wait for employer to ask about them? This is for jobs that require transcript. </p>
<p>I didn't think anything was inherently wrong in withdrawing from classes. No one in my family ever went to college and I didn't know about places like this forum. I was coerced into studying something I didn't want to and when I decided that a class wasn't for me, I would simply withdraw out of it. I had to go through this for two years otherwise I would have been homeless with no food or connections. The semester before I was finally free to study what I wanted, the entire semester was lined up with W's. </p>
<p>I think its dumb that someone will look at a few withdrawals and immediately discard my application just because of that. After my first year of college, my GPA was a 2.1. I'm at the end of my 4th year and now it is 3.2, I aim to have it up at 3.5 with a grade forgiveness on an F I got from that era and extra classes I am taking my 5th year.</p>
