Adcoms know that you’re human. It’s not like every single transfer student is perfectly healthy without problems. Some end up dropping courses or miss a semester or two due to health problems. They will likely want to know why you missed ‘x’ amount of semesters or why you dropped ‘x’ amount of classes. They may not ask you directly but in your transfer app there should be an additional comments section where you can explain.

Their biggest concern for this is the course work load or if you will have future health problems and may end up missing school or dropping out altogether.
