I was enrolled in a graduate program initially when I finished undergrad but I decided not to pursue it further after a couple of weeks. Unfortunately I missed the deadline for withdrawing so I ended up with a withdraw-F. Does this count against my overall GPA, or does only my undergrad GPA show up? I have a good GPA otherwise from undergrad so I don't want this messing it up.

Thanks.

There's a school out there where you only have 2 weeks into semester/quarter before a student gets penalized for withdrawing? WFs will certainly hurt irrespective how they are counted, but more importantly, being so easily distracted does not bode well.
 
Is there a separate GPA for grad school or is it lumped into one total GPA for all courses, ugrad and grad? Cause I don't want that stinker contaminating my good undergrad GPA lol.
