actually its 3 quarters, with the 4th being summer. 1 Quarter Credit hour equals 2/3 of a semester credit.

For a four year degree you usually need 180 quarter hours or 120 semester hours. Full time on Semesters is 4 classes each 3 credits which equals 12 credits or more; full time on quarter hours is 4 classes at 4 credits which equals 16 credit hours. Its complicated cuz the length of the quarter is usually 11 weeks including the finals week and the length of the semester is usually 15 weeks including the finals week. It all works out about the same. Hope this helps.

Some schools are on a two semester system and some are on a quarter system which is three shorter semesters than the two semesters ... the Hours they are asking for are the class credit hours you have earned so far for the semesters or quarters that you have been enrolled and studying and what the hours are in ... for instance English , math , history , chemistry, etc

Typically there are 2 semesters in a school year, or 4 quarters in a school year. In quarters, your class will be scheduled more frequently than in semesters.
