Answer 1: No, absolutely, positively not. A three-semester-credit hour course at the undergraduate level is much less work than a three-semester-credit-hour course at the graduate level. There is, in fact, a night-and-day difference.
So, then, no school, no matter what, would ever credit undergrad coursework toward a graduate degree. It's simply not done... ever.
But let's make sure we're clear on terms. By "graduate studies," you mean a masters degree (the one that comes after a bachelors degree), right? I've seen high schoolers get messed-up about the terms. It goes...
High school, then associates degree, then bachelors degree, then masters degree, then doctoral degree, then post-doctoral work. Or, said another way, it's high school, then AA or AS, then BA or BS, then MA or MS, then PhD, then post-doctoral studies. That's the order of things; and only starting at the MA or MS is it called "graduate." Below that -- at the AA/AS or BA/BS level -- it's called "undergraduate."
So if you were actually asking if the associates degree (AA or AS) credits can be used in a BA or BS, then the answer is absolutely, positively yes.
A typical two-year associates (AA or AS) degree is nothing more than the first two years of a typical four-year bachelors (BA or BS) degree. So-called "graduate" work doesn't begin until after all that; and most AA or AS degrees may be transferred straight into most BA or BS programs, and said AA or AS degrees will count as the entire first two years of said BA or BS degrees, leaving only the third and fourth years of said BA or BS degrees which would need to be completed...
...for a grand total of four years in school between the AA/AS and the BA/BS.
So, if you were confused and you thought that the BA/BS was "graduate" level, you were wrong.
However, if you understood things correctly, and wondered if any of your courses earned in an AA or AS program could be used in an MA or MS (masters) program, then the answer is what I first gave: No. Absolutely not. No exceptions.

When did NJ change from needing 60 to 64 credits?
I can't remember the exact date, but it has been within the last five years. Most associates degrees within the state of NJ were 64 credits or more anyway. The community college I am familiar with had only one associates at 60 credits which was a degree in liberal studies, exploring the arts and sciences (AS). Still, even that degree is now 64 credits, because of changes in state mandates.I can't remember the exact date, but it has been within the last five years.

How many credits can i use I have an associate degree how many different credits will I need for a second associate's degreeI will use all of my core classes and more from liberal arts degree?
The amount of credits that can be applied from one associates to another second associates would be strictly dependent on what area that second associates is in. For example, a Liberal Arts degree would do better with a second Associates of Arts in International Studies rather than in Engineering. Nonetheless, unless the second associates is in a specific practical field - Allied Health for example - why would you want a second associates degree. You would be much better off using your already accumulated credits toward a Bachelors Degree. I would recommend moving vertically and not horizontally. Viper1
