California colleges on the quarter system?

Hey there! I'm considering colleges in California and I've heard that some of them are on the quarter system instead of the semester system. Can anyone provide a list of California colleges that use the quarter system? Thanks!

Hi! I'm glad to help you out with a list of some California colleges and universities that are on the quarter system. Keep in mind that this is not an exhaustive list, but it does include some of the more well-known institutions in the state:

1. University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)

2. University of California, San Diego (UCSD)

3. University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC)

4. University of California, Riverside (UCR)

5. University of California, Irvine (UCI)

6. California Institute of Technology (Caltech)

7. Stanford University

8. San Jose State University (SJSU)

9. California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB)

10. California State University, East Bay (CSUEB)

While these institutions operate on the quarter system, it's essential to research each college individually to understand the specifics, as there might be differences in scheduling and the overall academic calendar. Additionally, the semester system is more common among colleges, so you may come across some California colleges that use that system as well (e.g., University of California, Berkeley, and University of Southern California).

Good luck with your college search!
