Said another way: A two-year AA or AS degree from pretty much any college contains all the LDGE that a four-year BA or BS degree contains and so most BA/BS programs will accept most AA/AS degrees, and let them count as the entire first two years of said BA/BS degrees, because it's usually during said first two years that all of the BA/BS's LDGE is earned. And so most people with an AA or AS may simply enter a BA or BS program, and then complete only the final two years thereof.Īnd part of the reason that works is because all regionally-accredited AA or AS degrees contains the exact same 'lower division general education' (LDGE) courses as pretty much all regionally-accredited BA or BS degrees.

A typical AA or AS is sixtey (60) semester credit hours, and a typical BA or BS is 120 semester credit hours and at most schools which offer four-year BA or BS degrees, the two-year AA or AS degree counts as the entire first two years of the four-year bachelors. However, I can give you some information, right now, that I know will help you.Ī two-year Associate of Arts (AA) or Associate of Science (AS) degree is typically exactly one-half of a four-year Bachelor of Arts (BA) or Bachelor of Science (BS) degree. Doing that is going to be the only way that you're ultimately going to be able to get anything even close to the answer you seek. Figure out a few schools that interest you, and then either ask for a printed-on-paper version, or go to its website and download a PDF version, of the school's 'catalog.' A college's catalog explains absolutely everything you could possible need to know about the school, its requirements, it rules, its costs, it procedures. things it will and/or won't accept, and under what circumstantces and every school is different. Answer 1: You're asking a question which cannot easily be answered, here in part, because each college in New York (or anywhere else, for that matter) is going to have its own requirements.
