What college is the best for a criminal justice degree?

Is a Criminal Justice degree from the US airforce the same as getting the degree from college?

• I still haven't made a decision as to where to join but I have come upon this: http://www.airforce.com/careers/detail/security-forces-specialist/ and at the bottom it says "College degree earned: Criminal Justice" is the degree earned there going to be the same one i can earn in college?

• Answer:

  It is an Associates of Applied Sciences awarded from the Community College of the Air Force, a fully accredited university system. That said, you don't just get the degree by joining and doing the job. While the AFSC will award you credits based upon your technical training and leadership training, you will still have to attain some college credits from another institution of higher learning to complete the degree. Usually this will amount to somewhere between 10 and 15 classes, based upon the type AFSC and number of credits awarded. The best part of it is the opportunity to work in the field while attaining the degree. It is full immersion career development and I recommend it for technical skills such as law enforcement, emergency management, fire fighting and even criminal justice. You have made a very good decision. Best of luck to you and I applaud your decision to serve your country.
