If you have an associates degree now do you have to take another 4 years of college to get a bachelors degree? |

Answer
It will depend on the course requirements for the bachelors degree. Typically you can apply your course work from your asscoiates degree to the bachelors - as long as those course meet requirements for the associates degree. Only the coursees you took for your associates degree that will count are the ones that need to be taken for the bachelors. It depends on the degree program. If you got an associates in Business and want a bachelors in psych - then you eill probably need more than 2 years to get the BA - Depending on the school and program you attend. It will alll depend on if the bachelors program will accept your prior coursework. So to answer your question, it is not the amount of years that will determin when you will get the bachelors but the amount of courses you still need. If all your associates courses count toward the bachelors, then you would only need around 60 more credits to get a bachelors, which normally takes 2 years full-time. Probably though, some classes wont transfer to the bachelor program, but it will all depend on what courses you have taken and what program you wish to attend for the bachelors.
Hope this helps!
