college, under the guidance of the school's counselor, for one or
more of the following reasons: 1) They can enroll in certificate programs,
which provide vocational training in technical fields. 2) They can
earn an associate degree, which signifies completion of the required
classes at a junior college. This degree normally takes two years
to earn. 3) They can take their general education requirements towards
a bachelor's degree at a junior college before transferring to a four-year

education requirements at a junior college. Earning a bachelor's degree
takes about four years of study. To achieve a master's degree, students
continue their education at the university for approximately two more
years. All course work must be done under the guidance of the university
counselor.
