Although most universities in the United States are on a semester system, which offers classes in the fall
and spring, some schools observe a quarter system comprised of fall, winter, spring, and summer quarters.
The academic year, September to June, is divided into three quarters of eleven weeks each beginning in
September, January, and March: the summer quarter, June to August, is composed of shorter sessions of
vary length.
There are several advantages and disadvantages to the quarter system. On the plus side, students who wish
to complete their degrees in less than the customary four years may take advantage of the opportunity to
study year round by enrolling in all four quarters. In addition, although most students begin their programs
in the fall quarter, they may enter at the beginning of any other quarters. Finally, since the physical
facilities are kept in operation year round, the resources are used effectively to serve the greatest number of
students. But there are several disadvantages as well. Many faculty complain that eleven-week term is
simply not enough for them to cover the material required by most college coursed. Students also find it

difficult to complete the assignments in such a short period of time.
In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system with those of the semester system some colleges
and universities have instituted a three-term trimester system. In fourteen weeks, faculty and students have
more time to cover material and finish course requirements, but the additional term provides options for
admission during the year and accelerates the degree programs for those students who wish to graduate
early.

Although most universities in the United States are on a semester system, which offers classes in the fall
and spring, some schools observe a quarter system comprised of fall, winter, spring, and summer quarters.
The academic year, September to June, is divided into three quarters of eleven weeks each beginning in
September, January, and March: the summer quarter, June to August, is composed of shorter sessions of
vary length.
There are several advantages and disadvantages to the quarter system. On the plus side, students who wish
to complete their degrees in less than the customary four years may take advantage of the opportunity to
study year round by enrolling in all four quarters. In addition, although most students begin their programs
in the fall quarter, they may enter at the beginning of any other quarters. Finally, since the physical
facilities are kept in operation year round, the resources are used effectively to serve the greatest number of
students. But there are several disadvantages as well. Many faculty complain that eleven-week term is
simply not enough for them to cover the material required by most college coursed. Students also find it
difficult to complete the assignments in such a short period of time.
In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system with those of the semester system some colleges
and universities have instituted a three-term trimester system. In fourteen weeks, faculty and students have
more time to cover material and finish course requirements, but the additional term provides options for
admission during the year and accelerates the degree programs for those students who wish to graduate
