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 designed as a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study as prescribed by the college or university, and also provided the individual does not require prerequisite or developmental coursework as a result of basic skills testing. The minimum credit load for a full-time student is 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. 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 while the masters and doctorate degrees referred to as graduate degrees.

Is a bachelor's degree the right degree for a graphic designer?
It could be. It depends on which level you would like to pursue (at least to begin with). Many community colleges offer graphic design as a two year associate's degree. Then again, you could choose to go directly for the bachelor's degree at a four year college or university. Some individuals (because of the expense of four year institutions) start with the associates degree which is much less expensive, and then transfer to another college or university to finish the bachelor's degree. Thus, it is a matter of preference.
