<p>Hi, I'm a freshman at Umich and currently thinking about dropping a class, which would result in a W on my transcript. It is a class required for my major. Will a W affect my future job opportunities/graduate school admissions?</p>
<p>I don’t think so one W should be fine don’t make it a habit though also do you know what your projected grade would be ??</p>
<p>One W on your transcript looks better than one D or C-. Dropping one class, especially freshman year in what I assume is a lower-level class will not have much effect. Just don’t make a habit out of it.</p>
