3 terms? 3 semesters? wth?
Can someone break down all the (3?) terms for me?
As in when the start and when they finish.
And... is a semester the same thing as a term?

Term 1: September to December

Term 2: January to April

Term 3: September to April (so basically, Term 1 + 2)

There are 4 terms in the school year:
Fall (Sept-Dec)
Winter (Jan-April)
Spring (May-June)
Summer (July-August)

They're not all numbered, so on the calendar if it says term 1 on the fall-winter calendar, it means it's the fall term. If term 2 on the fall/winter calendar, it's a winter course. If it says a term 3 course also on the fall-winter calendar, it means the course spans both fall and winter terms.

With regards to the spring/summer calendar, Term 1 means a spring course, term 2 is a summer course and a term 3 course on the same calendar is one that's all the way from May-August.
