Attendance is usually required for both. That type of thing always varies per teacher, though; some professors are more lenient than others or just don’t care. Usually, though, as UWP1 and ENL3 are almost always taught by graduate students, attendance is required.

I’m an English major so I took English 3 last semester. It focuses on literature (mine specifically fiction, poetry, and drama) and how to analyze/write about it. We had to read several short stories, poems, and one drama, talk about them in class, and write essays about them. I had to write about one paper (3 pages double spaced) per week as well as two journal entries (one page) per week. Most of the people in my class were non-English majors, but I do think UWP1 is probably more suited for non-English majors as it focuses on essay writing and analyzing stuff besides literature.

If you’re majoring in something besides English I would suggest UWP1 because it will probably be more helpful and useful to you in your academic career. If you like reading literature and want to major in English then ENL3 is the way to go.
