The fall semester is an academic term that typically begins in late August or early September and ends in December. It is one of the main semesters in the academic year for many educational institutions, including colleges and universities. During this time, students enroll in various courses, attend classes, and complete assignments. In addition to regular coursework, the fall semester often includes important events such as midterm exams, homecoming, and Thanksgiving break. This period is crucial for students as they establish their academic progress and prepare for the upcoming spring semester.
