Uni students get holidays too. Summer session is optional. You can be on holiday from November when you finish exams till March when uni starts again.

summer session usually goes from 12/12-23/12 and then continues (after the christmas holidays) from 02/01-20/02, which is about 9 weeks. some subjects offer a summer session, while most don't. the majority of the students at uni don't do it just so you know.
28/11-12/12 are holidays

Thats what I like to do. I did my 6uoc of gen eds in summer last year, and so I ended up doing only 21uoc per session during the year.

same. This yr I am only doing 3 subjects per sem, not four.

Is it feasible to do 2 subjects per summer holidays and that could theoretically make my course 3.5 years rather than 4?

Yes it would be, but it will not be possible because not all courses are offered in Summer session.
