ShotoJuku,
I think because it is a COURSE and not JUST an ECE exam, they have to offer it on a per semester basis. So if you register for the course by May 1st, you have UP TO a whole semester to complete it. But you can register at any time after that date up until the end of the semester (when a new start date begins).
I think my start date said September. But I only registered in November and, as I said, I was able to complete it in one evening.
There may be a cut off point towards the end of each semester when they no longer accept registrations, and those students would therefore have to wait until the start of the next semester.
So, while technically it is a semester-long course and it is offered on a semester basis, there is virtually rolling registration throughout the semester. Once registered, the course can be completed at your own pace in one day or a whole semester if need be.
Hope that makes sense!
