I'm not sure I understand how it is the "first grade that shows up on all my transcripts". I don't even know what that means.
And yes, it will affect your overall GPA. But, it's only 1 grade.
I accumulated the bulk of my credits from the same CC over a period of 10+ years - when I submitted those credits to EC for evaluation the transcript listed them by date from oldest to most recent. Thus, the first college-level course I took (the "C") is the first course to appear on my transcript for both my AA and then my BS.
That one grade knocked me down from Summa Cum Laude to Magna, so...ughhhh.
