Explanation:
Hola.

Según ésta y otras referencias, un “Associate Degree” es un diploma de técnico de nivel medio (generalmente 2 años), NO una licenciatura.

The Associate Degree is the first academic or professional degree that can be awarded in U.S. postsecondary education. Holders of this Degree may apply to enter other first degree programmes (such as those leading to the Bachelor's Degree), but are not qualified to apply directly for advanced (graduate) studies programmes. Programmes of study for this degree are usually designed to take 2 years of full-time study, but some programmes take longer to complete. Persons who pursue this degree on a part-time basis also take longer than 2 years to finish. The Associate Degree may be awarded in the liberal arts and general studies as an academic qualification or it may be awarded in a professional occupational field. Associate Degree programmes generally fulfil 2 years of the course requirements needed for a Bachelor's degree. Credit for Associate Degree studies is usually transferable to Bachelor's degree programmes, especially where transfer agreements have been established between or among institutions.
