Yes you can. It's a matter of preference. Personally, with the expense of four year institutions today, the community college is a great place to start. It would be much less expensive, better professor to student ratio, more individual attention, smaller classroom size, more family oriented etc. Still, this is just a personal opinion. It's up to you. Do you like being a big fish in a little pond, or a little fish in a big pond. Some students just like that four year institutional environment, but you will pay for it. I teach at both the community college and university levels. In my experience, the students who start at the community college do better in their junior and senior years at the four year institution than those who started at the four year institution to begin with. The foundation you get at the community college is critical.

How long does it take to earn a bachelors degree after earning an associates?

Well an associates degree is a two year degree while a bachelors is four. Not all major will transfer from an associates to a bachelors. For example you can get an associates in nursing and go on later to get your bachelors and it only be about two more years. But if you have an associates in nursing and you want a bachelors in business. You will pretty much have to start over and most likely only your prerequisites will count toward your new degree.

If you hold an associate's degree does it get averaged into your bachlors degree?

The four year institution will attempt to use as many credits form your associates degree toward your bachelors degree. However, the Grade Point Average (GPA) you achieved in your associates degree will not be averaged in with the GPA you achieve toward your bachelors. For instance, if your GPA at the associates level was 3.5, at the bachelors level you once again start with a GPA of 0.00. In other words your starting fresh.
