what is your goal, to get an associate degree? OR to learn photography?

I can't think of any 2 year schools with a quarter or trimester system which is sometimes faster, so you may be stuck with a two year program.

If your goal is to learn photography, I would recommend you avoid traditional schools, even though there just may be some good ones out there, (usually dependent on an energetic and enthusiastic teacher/dept head, not the school's program itself) and look at some workshops and seminars like the Santa Fe, Maine, Rocky Mountain, etc, and the many others with fine arts orientation, or, for portrait, wedding, digital, or commercial, any of the many PPA and their state and local associations that sponsor week long 'colleges' These weeklong workshops cost between 4-500 to 12-1,300 and you will learn more in that week that you will use in actual working conditions than you could possibly do in a couple years of community college. I know, I did both.

You will learn from the best of the business, how and why they do things, who and when they market it, what their equipment and the suppliers are. why cool.
