An associates degree can be earned at which of the following institutions?

Associate degrees are offered in vocational colleges, community colleges, and technical schools. An associate degree is an undergraduate degree that requires two years to complete. Some four-year colleges also offer associate degrees.

Some associate degrees serve as transfer degrees. This means that a student planning to take the first two years of college in a community college will get a transfer degree if he decides to continue his studies by transferring to a four-year college or university.
