All University of Winnipeg students are welcome to take any course in English providing they have the prerequisite or permission needed for the individual course. To satisfy the prerequisites for most Upper-Level English Courses, students must take 6 credit hours of First-Year English, including ENGL-1001(6) English 1 OR ENGL-1000/3 English 1A.

There are two ways to satisfy this requirement:
