A quarter is 12 weeks (I think).There are 3 3 month long quarters in a typical school. The school I've transferred to is setup like this; - full time is 18 credits - anything over 21 credits is the same as above - part time is under 12 This school is on semesters, each class is usually 2.75-3 credits which is 2-3 times a week. A semester is 14 weeks (I think). There are 2 semesters in a year. --- In the summer, it's usually split in half with a week between them. Basically, you're doing twice the work in half the time of a normal semester/quarter. Some people like it better because of that and some don't really care much for it.[/quote] FAQ Keyword Search: Post Options Favorites Manager Notify me of new replies to this topic by email Notify me of new replies to this topic by private message Original Post SgtPatches Posted at 9:50 pm on July 20, 2008 How many credit hours are typically in a year of college?
