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.

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.

Do most photographers get a degree in photography before they start work?

A degree isn't necessary to do photography for weddings and other events. Many people get a degree, but this is more useful as a job qualification in competitive photography arenas. If you would like to work in fine art, a degree in photography would be useful because you world learn art and photography history, and principles of art. For most photography jobs this isn't necessary. Experience counts most. If you aren't planning to earn a degree there are other ways to get a job as a photographer. Volunteer or start an internship with a photographer. You'll learn how to set up for a shoot, interact with customers, process film, and other practical skills. This kind of experience can help you begin a career as a photographer without a degree.


How many credits can i use I have an associate degree how many different credits will I need for a second associate's degreeI will use all of my core classes and more from liberal arts degree?

The amount of credits that can be applied from one associates to another second associates would be strictly dependent on what area that second associates is in. For example, a Liberal Arts degree would do better with a second Associates of Arts in International Studies rather than in Engineering. Nonetheless, unless the second associates is in a specific practical field - Allied Health for example - why would you want a second associates degree. You would be much better off using your already accumulated credits toward a Bachelors Degree. I would recommend moving vertically and not horizontally. Viper1

A bachelors degree can take between 120 and 128 credits to complete depending on the college or university, and the specific program of study. Thus, when transferring to a four year institution, you would have to complete an additional 60 to 64 credits. This is provided that the school you transfer to accepts your associates degree, full faith in credit. Some institutions can be very strict on what they accept. However, the associates in arts degree is typically a transfer program, so you should be fine.
