Diploma vs Associate Degree. A Diploma is one type of certification, and an Associate degree is another type. Diploma and Associates degree, as the name specifies, are different in many aspects.

For pursuing a Bachelorâs degree, a student must have a high school diploma or something equivalent to it.
