When do classes begin at LMU in Munich?

Question

How long does summer last for a typical German college student?

If the first question is too specific, when do most German universities begin class?

Answer 1

Typically, summer lessons are from 2nd week in April until mid-July, winter lessons from 2nd week in October until mid-February. The exact dates may vary a bit, depending on university. But that doesn't mean long holidays; you're expected to do some papers during the weeks without lessons. How much work that is depends on the subject you study.
