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 faculties 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
