[quote=Anonymous]I went to a trimester school for undergrad, and Dartmouth for grad (which was on the same academic calendar as the college but without the required summer). I like the trimester/quarter system. Fewer, more intense, classes, a little more schedule flexibility with 9 classes rather than 8 in the typical semester system. Easier to do a term abroad because you are only missing 1/3 of the year. Easier to get an interesting sophomore internship if you are looking during the year rather than summer. I visited friends there sophomore summer and it was an awesome time to be on campus. The only downside is that you get out much later than other schools in summer, which can make summer jobs a challenge. I guess another is that it is intense - midterms come up within a few weeks of the term starting.[/quote]
