@FumbleFingers: Four times a week is not a duplicate of four times a year. This question is probably un-answerable, but not a dup.

@cobaltduck: People do sometimes use quad-weekly, but that's inherently ambiguous (four times a week, or once every four weeks?). Whatever - comments on that earlier question include both quadri- and quadru- mean: four or four times, which about all there is to say here.

I think you're stuck with "four times a week". Bi-weekly can't even decide if it's every two weeks or twice a week.

@FumbleFingers - Dupes shouldn't rely on comments and the only answer that mentions quad is at -1. I'll take this opportunity to point out that saying "If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question." basically says to new users, if we've duped your question and those answers don't work for you, just ask this same question again. There should be a button: No, this is not a dupe and those answers didn't help me. and Yes, THIS answer helped me. with a script that copy-pastes their selected answer.

No, there is no word for "occurring four times a week".
Even the common phrase "every other day" only means four times a week in alternate weeks. Just use the phrase "meets four times a week".
There could have been such a word if weeks were eight or twelve days long. But "four times a week" with seven-day weeks is not evenly distributed. If there were a word which unambiguously meant "four times a week" rather than "every four weeks", then it's likely to be so rare that no-one would know what it meant, anyway.

quarterweekly could work along long the lines of quarterly.
No matter that it isn't in a dictionary. Nobody will need one to know what you mean.
