  4. First, ask yourself why you want to get an Associates degree.  Is it to further your career or to enhance your area of study?  If it is to further your career, it won't do much.  Jobs require at least a Bachelors Degree for a professional job.  When choosing an online college, you have to be very careful.  Many of them are expensive, and are not fully accredited.  Make sure the schools are regionally or nationally accredited, and a special accreditation of the major.  For example, Northeastern U. is regionally and nationally accredited.  Second, the business department is accredited through AACSB.

  6. Associate degree programs typically consist of roughly half the credits required for bachelors degree. As such they typically take half the time or 2 years, however, there are some accelerated programs that can be completed in a year but these are typically very difficult.

    It is difficult to say which college is the best, either online or on campus, as there are a lot of factors that need to be considered. What is more important is finding the best college for you. I would recommend contacting a number of schools to find the best one for your needs (schedule, tuition, reputation, etc.) and I would also make sure that any college you are considering is regionally accredited. The nice thing about associate programs is that most of them count as credits towards a bachelors degree if you choose to pursue that later. This site has some good information on accredited online associate degree programs and has some good schools for you to help begin your search:

  7. I am an Admissions Advisor at Kaplan university which is a regionally accredited school that ranked #1 for online on a survey by students. The main thing you should focus on is the accreditation. This is the most important thing when picking a school. There are 2 types of Accreditation that really means something. That is regionally and nationally accredited. There is also an accreditation website to check out schools accreditation which is www.chea.org I work with students everyday that are trying to change their lives but don't know where to start. If you need more answers or if you are looking to start school soon email me at tiimekaa@yahoo.com. I just love helping people and changing lives.
