A bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 124 to 128 college credits particular to a specific program of study. This would be based on a college or university that operates on a regular two semester academic year, which is the most common. For institutions that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester it would be quite different. That being said, the Bachelor's degree - in most cases - is design to be a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study in the prescribed manner. The minimum full-time student registers for a credit load of no less than 12 credits per semester. However, to complete the degree within the four years, a credit load of approximately 15 to 18 credits is recommended. In addition, there are some colleges and universities that offer accelerated programs of study. For individuals who work or who have other responsibilities that would prohibit them from attending full-time, completion of the degree may take twice as long. Still, some of this time can be cut down by attending summer sessions and/or interim sessions. In addition, the Bachelors and Associate degrees are referred to as undergraduate degrees with the Masters and Doctorate degrees referred to as graduate degrees.

∙ 11y agoIt depends on:
l. what level of degree the school grants
2. what subject you want to teach in
3. a combination of the two above items
Generally, you can teach one leve down from the degree you posess. For example-to teach at a high school, you need at least a bachelor's. To teach at a 2 year junior college, you need at least a master's. To teach at a four year college you need a master's, but preferably a PHD.
There are exceptions to the above. Some subjects like politica science, a PHD is really desireable to teach at a two year college. Same for English. And in sciences, especially biological, to teach at a four year college, not only do you need the PHD, but you need to have done a "postdoc" or two.
Good Luck.
