    It can be done in two years, if you are a full time student. It can be done in four years if you are half time. If you intend to work 40 hours a week, you will only have about 20 hours a week for "school time". Course work at a community college follows the same rule of thumb as course work at a university. One credit hour means one hour of class time and 3 to 4 hours of study time. You can not count on completing more than 5 credit hours a semester. You need 60 for an Associates Degree.

    That is 14 semesters, or at least 4 years. Of course, you have to go to summer school, to do it in this time. If you do not, this could easily take six years.
