I don't know how it is in Murica (and to be honest, it's almost-certain that schools and colleges in Remnant work the Murican way), but here in Venezuela, it's like this:

You get multiple classes of different subjects per semester, but each one has other classes as "requirements". For example, to see Math II in your 2nd Semester you need to pass Math I in your 1st Semester. If you fail Math I, then you need to see it again in your 2nd Semester.

And of course, at least in the college I go to, a student can choose to simply not see a specific class in the current Semester, either because it clashes with other classes in their schedule or they just don't want to see it at the time.

This means that sometimes, a student is technically on X Semester, but has to see classes from a previous Semester.

So in this case, it would be that Velvet is on her 2nd year, but failed / didn't see History class before and now has to see it again, with the newcomers.
