First, your indicating you already have two degrees. So, I don't understand your question as such. If you have accumulated credits at different schools that equal the number of credits required for an associates degree, you cannot claim you have an associates degree. Degrees require more than just an accumulation of credits. The credits must be in specific areas, under a specific program of study, within an acceptable grade point average, as prescribed by the college.
