I'm reviewing a bunch of schools that have limitations on how many community college credits I can take. My current dilemma is what qualifies as community college? I'm finishing up prerequisites at this school that offers Bachelor's degrees in about eight different fields, Biology included. Some resources on the web say it's only a two-year school. These Bachelor's programs have just been added in the last 3-4 years, but does the school need to be "University" status in order to eliminate the two-year label?

Would an ADCOM lookup the school and make the call?
 
If they offer a bachelors and you get that bachelors degree then it would count as a 4-year degree.

Already have a bachelor's. Should've mentioned I'm a non-traditional. Taking classes there because it's the only college within 100 miles (and only $55 a credit hour). I'm doing all the prerequisites at this college. They offer 300 level Biochem too.

Not sure if that changes anything.........
