I had previously been placed on academic dismissal from a graduate program, but had gotten permission to withdraw from the university, and now I have a grade of "W" on my transcript (where i had hoped I could just drop the class and not have it appear on my record).
How would this look to other universities, in case I decide to apply to different programs at a future date?
You are more likely to face questions about why you stopped your studies, then why you ended up with a single W. The W is just a part of that bigger question they will probably have for you. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
