My first semester at school I dropped a math course. At my Uni, dropped is different than withdrawal in that I dropped really early on, before the "drop date". I don't want to list it as a W, because I know that's not favorable, and it's not what happened. Do I just put "DR" in the grade section and 0 for credits?
 
Dropped courses usually don't show up on your transcript. If it does, then it would be best to contact ADEA on how to enter it on your application (cause the system might not accept DR as anything). If it doesn't show up on your transcript, you don't need to put it in.

Thank you, unfortunately it does show up on my transcript.

For anyone else reading: I called and they said to list it as no grade ("NG" I'm assuming). I forgot to ask about how enter credits, but I'm going to use 0 because it was 0 attempted credit hours (dropped like 2nd week).
