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.

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
