Hi guys, I'm thinking of applying to Georgia Military College's Augusta campus and I'm curious about the academic calendar. Does it align with the traditional two-semester system, or does it follow a different schedule?
Georgia Military College operates on a quarter system rather than the traditional two-semester system. In a quarter system, the academic year is divided into four terms: Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer. Each quarter typically lasts about 8-10 weeks, during which students usually take 3-4 classes. This allows for a more intensive focus on fewer subjects at a time, compared to the semester system, but with a quicker pace. It's definitely something to consider when planning your course load and study schedule. For specifics on start and end dates for each quarter at the Augusta campus, you would have to check the GMC Augusta academic calendar on their official website. They update it regularly with accurate dates for each term.
