ENGL 10800 is an composition course that, like ENGL 10600, satisfies the Written Communication and Information Literacy requirements of the university core. As in ENGL 10600, students should expect to produce at least 6,000 words of polished writing. Some of this text production may be done using multimedia, and some of it may be composed in short assignments.

In a nutshell: 108 is 106 without required conferencing. 

There are three versions of ENGL 10800:

• ENGL 10800, First-Year Composition: The standard version of ENGL 10800. Some sections are taught by English faculty.
• ENGL 10800HDPT, First-Year Composition: Honors. These sections are reserved for students enrolled in the Honors College.
• ENGL 10800LCOM, First-Year Composition: Learning Communities. These sections are reserved for students enrolled in learning communities.

All versions of ENGL 10800 are acceptable for students who have transferred ENGL 1XXWC to Purdue and who still need to complete a composition requirement for their program or who need to fulfill the Information Literacy (IL) part of the university core.
