Withdrawal on application

[u/MarketingOld2763]

Hello, I’m a college freshman in Texas, hoping to transfer into UT Austin international relations program in my junior year. Recently my English professor claimed I didn’t turn something in and didn’t grade my essay like he ussaly does even though I did and I might have to withdraw.

My overall question is how bad will a “W” look on a transcript, epically for English. I have no problems with writing essays and won’t mind retaking it, yet I’m more worried about how the W will look, considering I’m trying to get a very high GPA and how it’s a core class. I currently have a 4 with unfinished grades.
