A bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 120 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.

How long to obtain an associate's degree in music?

Answer 1: All associates degrees take two years to earn if they're pursued "full time"......meaning the student taking 15 semester credit hours per semester, for two semester (or 30 semester credit hours) per year, for two years, thereby earning the associate's degree's typical 60 semester credit hours. A bachelors degree, by way of reference, is double that: 120 semester credit hours, which typically takes a full-time student four years.It matters not what is the subject. The associates degree, regardless of subject, typically takes a full-time student two (2) years to earn.

How long will it take to get your teaching degree if you have an associates in general studies?

This will strictly depend upon the college you are attending and what state it is in. Each state requires different courses to be taken and qualifications for graduation with a teaching degree. But if you can get graduate with a bachelors it shouldn't take you more than two years possibly plus another semester. But I know that at the University of Arkansas they require a masters degree in education. Where as in Texas they only require a bachelors. But at the University of Arkansas- Fort Smith you only have to have a bachelors degree.


What is the difference between the university master's degree and college master's degree?

The words "college" versus "university" can be confusing......especially in the US, where they can mean different things, depending on the state and/or the school(s) in question.It would be nice if things in the US were more like they are in the UK, when it comes to the difference between "college" and "university." In the UK, the university is the large, overall institution; and then each of its constituent parts are called colleges... like the University of London system.And in that (University of London) system, there is no difference: a masters degree is a masters degree.Gratefully, despite the less-clear difference between "college" and "university" in the US, a masters degree, regardless which kind of institution issues it, is the same, from either. A masters degree is a masters degree. Period.In pretty much all cases, a "masters" degree consists of from, typically, 32 to 48 graduate semester credit hours, beyond a 120 undergraduate-semester-credit-hour "bachelors" degree.Though the credits are calculated differently in the UK, it's still the same: first a bachelors degree, and then a masters degree; and it matters, not, whether it's from a school that calls itself a "college," or one that calls itself a "university." In either case, it's post-secondary, graduate-level higher-education that's immediatelly beyond the post-secondary undergraduate bachelors degree.
