A semester (from the Latin meaning six-monthly) has come to mean either of two academic terms, generally excluding the summer or January terms, if any, and so can be 12 to 20 weeks long. The word semester is sometimes used as a synonym for a term, as in a summer semester.
Best Answer: A semester is approximately 15 weeks or 45 hours of classroom contact. A quarter is approximately 10 weeks or 30 hours of classroom contact. Now, some schools do use a trimester system, which consists of three 14 or 15 week sessions--Fall, Spring and Summer. Each of these sessions is equivalent to a semester, and students can choose to come to two per year.
