Mark,

I'm sorry you had to deal with that during college. I wouldn't wish this situation on anyone.

I appreciate you sharing your experience and knowledge on the subject. I met with my academic advisor today to go over the details. Withdrawing now seems to be the right choice for both my academic and especially my health future. I just wish that my University was more flexible about the "W" grades. I know that some colleges allow for more time to withdraw without a permanent effect to a transcript. Most of the people I have spoken with seem to think that 3 "W" grades will not be an issue since I have a good reason for them. I know you said this too.

Thanks again for your advice.

I am not sure what auditing a class means. No one has brought this up. Is that where you sit in on the class?
