reation Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I took one course via Athabasca and due to some reasons I will be withdrawing it. Should I still list the course on OMSAS as the transcript from AU would contain no other grades either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMasterHopeful Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 At the uni I attended, if you withdrew from a course prior to the withdrawal deadline (i.e. no academic penalty) then it does not even show up on transcripts. In that case, I wouldn't put it on the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reation Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 It does say a "W" will appear on the transcript but I have no other courses on this transcript except that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroPreMed Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 If it pops up on the transcript I would put it, if it isn't needed then at least it didn't look like you tried to hide a W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mountainaxe46 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I had a friend who went through this scenario. Apparently Athabasca has two types of withdrawals -- one is a withdrawal (no extenuating circumstances) while another involves some academic relief from exceptional circumstances.
