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.

How many years would it take to earn an associates and bachelors and masters and professional doctorial degree?

Well, you don't need to earn a two-year associates degree before earning a bachelors. You can start with a four-year bachelors degree. The master's is typically another two to three years and a PhD is another two to three years. Programs differ, as do schools and personal schedules, so completing all degrees can take from 7-10 years. Typical time frames and requirements: Associate's Degree - Two years full-time - Usually requires about 60 credit hours. Bachelor's Degree - Four years full-time - Usually requires about 140 credit hours. An Associate's Degree is not required to start a Bachelor's Degree. Master's Degree - One to two years - Usually requires at least 30 credit hours of graduate level courses. Doctorate's Degree - Two to three years - Usually requires between 80 and 90 hours. Not all Doctorate programs require a Master's Degree first. Example, a law degree is a Doctorate, but the majority of students enter law school directly from Undergrad. An attorney can then earn a Master's Degree later.

How long to obtain an associate's degree in music?

Answer 1: All associates degrees take two years to earn if they're pursued "full time"......meaning the student taking 15 semester credit hours per semester, for two semester (or 30 semester credit hours) per year, for two years, thereby earning the associate's degree's typical 60 semester credit hours. A bachelors degree, by way of reference, is double that: 120 semester credit hours, which typically takes a full-time student four years.It matters not what is the subject. The associates degree, regardless of subject, typically takes a full-time student two (2) years to earn.
