Depends on the college and the program. It varies between programs. Some are more than others. My BS required 35 units, which is 4 years of college. A BS/BA is 4 college years.
A bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 120 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.
First, to significantly cut the cost of a bachelors degree. I would think about starting at a community college, then after obtaining the associates degree, transfer to the four year institution for the bachelors. As per your request on the amount of credits needed for a bachelors degree; the bachelors degree can run between 124 to 128 credit hours.

It depends on the bachelors degree you want...For mine, I need 180 quarter credit hours (60 classes)...its typically 170-210 credit hours...divide that by 3 and you will get how many classes
For institutions that operate on a regular two semester academic year, a bachelors degree can range between 120 and 128 credit hours.
==Answers== This will vary by major and by institution. Most schools require between 30 and 40 credit hours within that major to get a Bachelors degree. This is not including the general requirements and support requirements also.
Typically, an associate's or 2-year degree requires 60 credit hours of study (half a bachelor's degree, typically 120 hours) but may vary a bit more or less depending on the area of study and courses required.
First of all, you can't do anything with a degree in psychology. Second, does if matter how many hours it takes, c'mon it's psychology!!!
{| |- | A Bachelor's degree is an undergraduate degree. A Master's is a graduate degree. You have to have a Bachelors degree to qualify for entry into a master's program. Most BA programs require around 120 credit hours to obtain the degree. Master's typically require about a third of that. |}

Graduation with a DEGREE from an accredited 4 year college/university.
For colleges and universities that operate on a regular semester system, 30 credits would be approximately two years for a full-time student. 30 credits places a student at sophomore student status.
The master's degree can take approximately two to three years to complete post bachelor's degree. The actual length of time depends on the specific program of study; the credit load carried per semester, and provided the student takes the degree as prescribed by the college or university.
