Hi, I am interested in applying to law school next Fall....I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how Withdrawal grades from Kent State University are interpreted by Law School Admission Council? Yes, the W grades are non-punitive but where I am worried is because W grades are factored into attempted hours on transcript. Anyone on here graduate from KSU as undergrad? If so, how did LSAC handle your W's on your Law School report. Please help me! I called LSAC and couldnt get any answers.

I am getting ready to apply to law school with a fairly decent gpa. However, I have a number of course withdrawals which I will address in an addendum. The withdrawals are medical withdrawals which are from a situation beyond my control. I am worried about how LSAC is going to handle these withdrawals. Clearly, these are not punitive Withdrawals since they had no effect on my gpa, but the transcript lists attempted hours for the withdrawals on on the LSAC website they say, Failure is defined as credit attempted but not earned. Has anyone been in this situation where the transcript lists attempted hours for your W's? If so, did LSAT count these as F's? Please help me. I cant get an answer. I called LSAC and they couldnt answer my question. My undergraduate institution is Kent State University.
