If you qualify to take EN 103, and you complete it with the req’d minimum grade, then it will fulfil the Frosh Comp I and II req’t. I don’t know if you still only get 3 credits or not.

I doubt it’s harder than EN 102, it probably just quickly reviews some of the more basic Frosh Comp instruction… EN 101 probably goes more into depth with how to write a proper 3 para, 5 para essay, thesis statement, conclusion, doing proper citations, etc

EN 103 Advanced English Composition. 3 hours.

This is an accelerated freshman composition course that is open to students with minimum composite scores of 28 ACT or 1240 SAT, or minimum ACT English scores of 30 or SAT verbal scores of 720. With the appropriate qualifying scores and the completion of EN 103 with a grade of “C-“ or higher, placement credit is awarded for EN 101 and the general education requirement for freshman composition is completed. Expository writing. Topics to be determined by each instructor. Grades are reported as “A,” “B,” “C,” or “NC” (“No Credit”). A grade of “C-” is required as a prerequisite for advancing to another English course at The University of Alabama. EN 103 does not apply as credit to the English major or minor.
