It's up to you how long it will take to earn your degree. The more courses you take, the faster you get to the finish line.
EVERY COURSE COUNTS!
Here Are Some Possibilities:

- 2.5 YEARS if you take 4 courses (12 credit hours) per semester
- 3.5 YEARS if you take 3 courses (9 credit hours) per semester
- 5 YEARS if you take 2 courses (6 credit hours) per semester

Stay on your Degree Plan to Finish Faster!
Most programs take 60 credit hours to earn your associate degree. Learn more about our programs here.
Check with your advisor to find out how many credit hours you need to graduate.
