7 SESSIONS vs TERMS

The School of Education Accelerated Graduate Programs operate on the quarter system. Each quarter is considered one TERM. As a result, we have Fall Term, Winter Term, Spring Term, and Summer Term. Because of this, courses begin twice during each term. The resulting split of the terms is referred to as sessions. There are two sessions per term. As a result, there will be references to the first or second session of each term/quarter. You will often see these written as Fall I, Fall II, Winter I, Winter II, Spring I, and Spring II. There is only one session during summer term and this is always Summer I.
