My personal guess is 131.25 semester hours.
A quarter is considered 3 months and semester is 4 months (ie. there are 4 quarters in a year and 3 semesters in a year). Most colleges have converted to semesters and I believe (can't say for sure) that semester hours would be 3/4 of your quarter hours. The best way to know for sure would be to call the Admin dept of a college (any college) in the area that you are planning on attending/transfering to. They will give you an acurate number.

I think a quarter is 1/4 semester is 1/2 and trimester is 1/3. So 87.5 hours.
