Question: Is Hocking College A University??(Please Answer)!!!!!!?How much schooling would six credits be??? Thx!10 months ago
Best AnswerNo, it's a 2 year junior college. It only awards associate degrees. Six credits will typically be 2 classes, as most classes are 3 credits each. Certain science classes, though, may be 4 or 5 credits each (with a lab) and some easier classes may only be 2 credits. So it all depends on your course selection. |

Best AnswerExcellent feild to go in to. They would be good classes to take to apply to a lot of the degrees mentioned on the page I think. And it opens up doors for many different career opportunities; wilderness guides, park rangers, forrestry services, you name it. The job market for careers in wildlife and recreation studies are growing. I am going to school for range management myself which is a related field. I would like to take classes like that.
