If a Class is Not on my Transcript do I Put it on AMCAS

I just need a little clarification.

I withdrew my freshman year and I am fully aware that I have to explain the withdrawal but if the classes are not on my transcript do I have to list them all with Ws? It literally only says a withdrawal date and I have no idea what classes I was taking anyway.

Thanks.

Yes you do. Ask your registrar the name of the classes in question.

Here are the instructions from the 2016 AMCAS Instruction Manual, p. 44:

A Withdrawal includes any course from which you officially withdrew, regardless of whether you were passing or failing at the time. Such courses usually appear on the transcript as a "W" or equivalent symbol. A course entry must be made even if the withdrawn course does not appear on the transcript. No credit hours or AMCAS grade will be assigned. A course entry should not be made if the course was dropped within the normal drop/add period and does not appear on your transcript. If you withdrew entirely from a school before completing courses for a specific term, you must still list each course for which you were registered that term with Withdrawal as the Special Course Type. If the school does not issue transcripts for students who withdraw entirely, you must request that the registrar's office forward an official letter (with an AMCAS Transcript Request Form attached) indicating that no transcript is available because of institutional policies. If you made an unofficial or administrative withdrawal, those courses will be included in your AMCAS GPAs if your school included it in its GPA.
