It's usually not a state-by-state sort of requirement. Rather, it's a requirement set forth by the school's "regional" accreditor. A typical two-year (if pursued full-time) assocates degree contains sixty (60) semester credit hours (if the school's on the "semester credit hour" system), or 90 quarter credits (if the school's on the "quarter credit" system). Most schools in the US are on the "semester credit hour" system, but some are on the "quarter credit" system. It all just depends on the school.

Typically, an associates degree can range between 60 and 64 credits depending on the specific program of study and state mandates. However, because of the clinical hours involved, nursing programs can take up to 75 credits.
