Anesthesiology/Anesthesiology: Associate Degree vs Bachelor Degree

Question
Can you enroll in this program if you have an associate degree or do have to have a bachelors' degree instead

Answer
It depends on what you want. If you want to be an anesthesiologist, you must have a bachelor's degree and an MD degree first. An Associate degree may work if you want to be a PA-anesthesia provider (I'm not sure).
