Answers. Best Answer: It depends on how long each semester is at any particular school. For example, at the university where I work at, a semester is 16 weeks long. Take into consideration holidays, a semester is roughly 75 days long. The length of the semester depends on the school and the observed holidays. Best wishes!
Spring and fall semesters are 16 weeks. They consist of 15 weeks of instruction and a week for finals. Summer sessions tend to vary a lot more from school to school. Individual colleges have a lot more freedom to set summer calendars. I'm on the quarter system, but this is what I have gathered through my research.
