how many semester in one year of a usa university?

Normally two full semesters, with an additional shorter “summer session.”

There are some schools, however, that run under a 3 trimester system. They’re far less common, but they do exist.

Two semesters (fall & spring).

Quarter system schools will have 3 quarters in a school year (fall, winter & spring).

Each semester lasts 15 weeks. Fall and spring.
