The end of the fall semester generally varies depending on the institution and the academic calendar system they follow.

• In most U.S. colleges on a semester system, the fall semester starts in late August or early September and ends in December. The final exam week is usually scheduled for early to mid-December, with classes typically ending around the second week of December.

• For example, at the University of Texas at Austin, the fall semester for 2025 starts on August 25 and ends on December 15, with final exams running from December 11 to 13 and 15.

• Similarly, at Boston University, the fall semester classes typically end around mid-December, with final exams concluding by late December.

• In Germany, the winter semester (equivalent to the fall semester in the US) starts on October 1 and ends on March 31 of the following year, with lectures generally ending around mid-February followed by exam periods.

To summarize, in many U.S. institutions, the fall semester ends mid-December after final exams, while in some European institutions like Germany, it extends into the next calendar year with lectures ending in February.
