Will a W on my transcripts affect me?

I am freshman at a target school, and I intend to get into IB. I am taking a course that I am not enjoying at all. I had very different expectations for the course; it turned out to be not interesting to me, and I have no motivation to study for this course.

Will withdrawing and having a W on my transcript affect me for getting interviews later on?
