The associates degree is designed as a two year program of study as a full-time student provided the student takes the degree as prescribed by the college, and provided the student does not require prerequisite coursework as a result of basic skills testing. There are some programs of study that may take a bit longer depending on the number of credits required. Usually these are programs within the health related fields. In addition, for students who require developmental course work as a result of basic skills testing, it would take longer. How much longer would depend on the extent of the developmental courses they are required to take. Evidently, those individuals who attend college on a part-time based would also extend their time in school. How much longer would depend on the credit load carried each semester. Typically, an associates degree takes between 60 and 64 credits to complete depending on the specific school, program of study, and state mandates.

Answer 1: An "Associate of Arts" (AA) degree, at most regionally-accredited colleges and universities in the United States, consists of sixty (60) semester credit hours (or 90 "quarter credits," depending on which system the school is using). If one attends classes "full-time," then an AA degree takes two (2) years to complete.

After that, one simply transfers one's AA into a bachelors (BA or BS) program, and said AA counts as the first two (freshman and sophomore) years of said BA/BS, so that the AA degree holder need only complete the BA/BS's junior and senior years, and, voila!, s/he has himself/herself both an associates, and a bachelors degree!

Pretty slick, eh?
