Will I lose credits if I transfer from a semester system to a quarter system?

Transfer Student FAQ - Frequently asked Questions
We grant 1.5 quarter credits for each semester credit. (Multiply the number of semester credits by 1.5 for the number of quarter credits.) Students transferring from a school on the semester system will not lose credits; their credits are just expressed in a different way. One semester course is generally equivalent to one quarter course. Occasionally, two semester courses, taken in sequence may be equal to three quarter courses.

Lexia - FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
It does not matter whether your university is on a semester, trimester or quarter system because your university can easily convert Lexia credits listed on your Western Washington University transcript to your school's system. If you're on a quarter system at your home institution, you might consider participating in the Lexia program in the fall rather than in the spring so that you only miss one term at your home institution, rather than two.

For example, if you took a class for 4 quarter credit, it would equal 2.5 semester credits. The table below displays the quarter hour to semester hour conversion.

Question #1: Why don't any of my transfer credits count?

Transfer Evaluation | Frequently Asked Questions
There is a difference between course transferability and course equivalency. First find out if the credit is truly not counting-it could be because the class is not within the numbering system, the class is concurrent enrollment (see Question 3), or the school is not accredited. If the coursework has been accepted for credit but has not been given equivalency, the student will want to talk to a transfer evaluator.
