What is English Composition II?
The second course in the college writing sequence, focused on research, rhetorical analysis, and literary analysis. It is English 102.
Do I need Composition I first?
Most universities require English 101 as a prerequisite. Check your institution's requirements — UPI Study does not enforce a prerequisite.
How is this different from Composition I?

What citation styles are taught?
MLA and APA documentation are both covered in depth, including annotated bibliographies.
How long does English Composition II take to complete?
79 contact hours; typically 28–30 days. Fully self-paced with no deadlines.
Is there a research paper?

Will my university accept English Composition II credit?
Most regionally accredited universities accept NCCRS credit recommendations — UPI Study students transfer composition credits regularly. Check Find My College or book a free advisor call and we'll confirm your school in minutes.
Can I take Comp I and Comp II at the same time?
You can enroll in both, though we recommend completing Composition I first for the strongest foundation.
What's the difference between English Comp 1 and Comp 2?
Comp 1 covers essay fundamentals; Comp 2 focuses on research writing, source evaluation, citation, and argumentation.
Does English Comp 2 satisfy the second writing requirement?

Yes — the course builds toward documented research writing with proper citation and source integration.
Is there a CLEP equivalent for Comp 2?
CLEP College Composition covers some of this ground, but many schools award only Comp 1 credit for it — a Comp 2 course fills the gap.
How long does English Comp 2 take?
Self-paced; most learners finish in 4–8 weeks depending on writing time.
