The Semester System


Under the semester system on the Berkeley campus, the academic year is divided into two semesters and one summer session. Quarter units, either earned previously at Berkeley or at another institution, are converted to semester units by multiplying by two-thirds; for example, 180 quarter units equal 120 semester units.
