Just not too sure what kind of differences to expect.

Midterms come both before and after spring break. Every course is different so you will need to check the syllabus for the particular course.
You can view course outlines here (all you have to do is find your course):

It will break down the course in what is graded. If you see more than 1 midterm, it is likely to have one before and one after spring break.
There is the same thing for Crim courses so all you have to do is look it up yourself.
As for how much "harder" SFU is, well, I can't really answer that. I guess it depends on the individual. I was always under the impression that school is as hard or as easy as you want to make it. If you keep up with your work and do all the assigned readings/assignments, it should be "easy". Whereas if you're going to procrastinate, it may be hard for you.
It just all depends on the type of person you are. No one can really decide for you other than yourself.
What courses are you taking?
