A bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 124 to 128 college credits particular to a specific program of study. This would be based on a college or university that operates on a regular two semester academic year which is the most common. For institutions that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester it would be quite different. That being said, the Bachelor's degree - in most cases - is designed as a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study as prescribed by the college or university, and also provided the individual does not require prerequisite or developmental coursework as a result of basic skills testing. The minimum credit load for a full-time student is no less than 12 credits per semester. However, to complete the degree within the four years, a credit load of approximately 15 to 18 credits is recommended. For individuals who work or who have other responsibilities that would prohibit them from attending full-time, completion of the degree may take twice as long. Still, some of this time can be cut down by attending summer sessions and/or interim sessions. In addition, the bachelors and associate degrees are referred to as undergraduate degrees while the Masters and Doctorate degrees referred to as graduate degrees.
No. Four years for a Bachelor's degree for you major and an Associates degree for your minor. Or you can take extra credit in modules you are interested in but your degree doesnt cover (provided you meet the pre-requisites)
It will depend on the course requirements for the bachelors degree. Typically you can apply your course work from your asscoiates degree to the bachelors - as long as those course meet requirements for the associates degree. Only the coursees you took for your associates degree that will count are the ones that need to be taken for the bachelors. It depends on the degree program. If you got an associates in Business and want a bachelors in psych - then you eill probably need more than 2 years to get the BA - Depending on the school and program you attend. It will all depend on if the bachelors program will accept your prior coursework. So to answer your question, it is not the amount of years that will determin when you will get the bachelors but the amount of courses you still need. If all your associates courses count toward the bachelors, then you would only need around 60 more credits to get a bachelors, which normally takes 2 years full-time. Probably though, some classes wont transfer to The Bachelor program, but it will all depend on what courses you have taken and what program you wish to attend for the bachelors.
Hope this helps!

No, however, if you plan to pursue your bachelor's degree (which you should), make sure you are in a transferable associates degree. In this way you will just need an additional two years to complete the bachelor's degree. Please make sure you see the Transfer Counselor at the college you are attending. He/she will be able to give to appropriate direction so that the transfer goes smoothly. The community college is a great place to start for a number of reasons to include the following.
* Community colleges are less expensive to start out with. You can cut the cost of a four year degree almost in half by starting at a community college first, and then transferring to four year college or university to finish up the last two years. * There are typically smaller classroom sizes at the community college with a better professor to student ratio, which means more individualized attention. * Some students do not meet the entrance requirements of the four year college or university, thus they start at the community college first, then transfer later. * The community colleges are typically more family oriented, with a strong sense of community. * Some students like to be close to home, thus they start at their home county community college.
