For alumni who already possess an associates degree, Thomas Edison State University is ready for you to come back to school to finish your bachelor’s degree.

Most associate degree programs at the University fit seamlessly into one of our bachelor degree programs. This means most associate degree graduates will only have to earn an additional 60 credits, depending on your academic evaluation.

All bachelor’s degree programs at Thomas Edison State University are designed around the unique needs of adults, like you.

In addition to online courses, independent study and credit-by-exam programs, students can earn credit for college-level knowledge acquired outside the classroom, through prior learning assessment and through professional and military training.
