Ehhhh..... That's misleading.

In many places to be eligible for the academy you'd have to have an associates or bachelors degree.

But again, location dependant.

Just two years of prior "responsible work experience" required here in Maryland.

But a degree in what because if it's a degree in literature that's useless. I suspect no cop has a degree in literature

Usually called a criminal justice degree, includes basic law classes, administration, stuff like that. Offered in a lot of county colleges where it's required.

Not that it results in a better cop at all imo, just saying the timeframe of a max of 6 months throughout the US is really misleading.
