If you want to expand your career options, increase your earning potential, and enhance your marketability as a job candidate, then an Associate Degree could be just what you're looking for. Here's how to earn a two-year degree from a community college near you.
  1. The first step towards getting an Associate Degree is to enroll in the community college of your choice. Unlike four-year universities, community colleges do not have a formal application process--complete with interviews, teacher recommendations, and essays--followed by an extended waiting period. Moreover, you won't have to meet the rigorous academic standards that most four-year institutions impose on prospective students. Instead, as long as you are at least 18 years of age and possess a high school diploma or equivalent, you will be able to enroll in a community college.

  2. After enrolling, the next thing you should do is meet with an advisor to discuss your academic and career goals. Your advisor will be assigned to you by the school. If you indicated a major on your application form, your advisor will likely be someone from that particular program. If you have not decided on a major yet, your advisor will be someone who can help you navigate through the general education requirements until you choose a specific course of study.

    For the duration of your enrollment at the college, your advisor will be able to assist you in a variety of ways, such as suggesting electives that will best suit your stated goals, writing academic or employment recommendations, or even interceding on your behalf in the event of grade disputes with professors. Therefore, it's best that you get to know your advisor as soon as possible.
