Terms and Concepts
Colleges and universities in the United States vary in the way they divide the
academic year. At some institutions, the year may be divided into quarter terms,
that is, into four parts of roughly the same length, including a summer term.
At other places, the year may be divided basically into two parts called
“semesters,”and there may be one or two summer terms between the semesters.
