How long is a college semester?
In terms of class days, an entire school year is usually 150 class days (but may be as many as 180 days). A semester (half the year) is about 75 class days. At 5 days per week that is about 15 weeks of school per semester. There is usually one long (1–2 wk) or two short (long weekend) breaks during the semester, plus a long break between semesters. You would take 4 - 6 courses per semester (30 credits).Sometimes there are shorter “intercession” terms (e.g. during the long winter and summer breaks between semesters). These might be 4 weeks long (e.g. during winter break), during which you’d take one or two courses. Some colleges offer one or two of these short terms over 8 summer weeks. These short terms may be optional or required (e.g. colleges that have a “J term” in January or June). If they are optional then you pay extra tuition to attend; if required they are included in your regular tuition.Other colleges offer one longer optional summer term. Some colleges even offer 2 week optional courses during the spring break.Some schools break the year into four approximately equal sections, usually 10–11 weeks each with breaks generally (excepting Monday holidays) falling only in between. Three of these that fall during the regular academic year are “trimesters” and are required (and included in tuition) while the summer term is optional and you pay extra tuition to attend.

Traditionally it'd be about three semesters. Most people take about 15 credits per fall/winter semester, more like 6-8 for spring/summer (fall september to december, winter january to april, spring/summer vary a lot more but are much shorter). If you only take fall/winter you could finish 40 in one school year and a half, though with spring or summer ir could be done in one. 51 would require an extra semester onto that.

In college do classes last for a semester or go all year?
Yes and no. Each individual class will last a semester (or quarter if you are on a quarter schedule). But there are some classes that have 2+ semesters. For example, general chemistry (at my school) is actually a year long course. The first semester is CHEM 101 and the second semester is CHEM 102. So technically, they are different courses (because they have different course numbers) but it is a continuation of the same subject. You don't have to take CHEM 101 and CHEM 102 right after each other. If you wanted to take CHEM 101 in the fall and CHEM 102 two years from now, you could. Most of my classes are individual, one semester courses though.
How many classes does the average college student take per semester?
