  • Associate's Degree: highest post-secondary degree is an associate's degree (including occupational or academic degrees)
  • Bachelor's Degree: highest post-secondary degree is a bachelor's degree (e.g., BA, BS, AB)

  • Professional Degree: highest post-secondary degree is a professional degree (e.g., MD, DDC, JD)
