Going back to school for your bachelor’s degree or starting one for the first time is a big decision – and one of the most important questions is how long it will take. The answer is different for everyone, but you can determine your timeline by doing 3 things: define your goals, establish a starting point and execute a plan.

It’s personal. To achieve this goal, you have to determine how college courses can fit into your life. Can you go to school full-time or do you have a full-time job to consider? Just because you’re busy, doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Explore online degrees to work around your other commitments, and you can move forward toward a degree.

What is your starting point? Do you already have some college credits? If you choose a school that is transfer-friendly, you may be able to take fewer courses and save time and money.

You need 120 credits to earn a bachelor’s degree, and most courses are 3 credits. That means if you take 30 credits a year, you can earn a degree in 4 years. More credits per year and you can shorten that timeline.

Now, make a plan. Reach out to schools you’re interested in and ask financial and academic counselors what this might cost you, what scheduling options are available and what kind of support you can expect. Create a schedule that lets you take care of your other responsibilities while also earning your bachelor’s degree.
