Anyone know how many credits most schools require you to have earned from their school to earn a bachelor's degree there?

My school is 120 for a bachelors.
120 credits.
Yes I understand you need 120 credits to receive a degree. But how many of them, in general, need to be from the institution from which you will be receiving the degree?
You need 120 credits, and fullfill the requirements for a program they offer. All or none can be from that institution. It all depends on what they let you get away with as a transfer credit. There isn't a set limit like "atleast 20% of courses must be from said institution". You just have to complete a program, with or without transfer credits.
Right, but every school requires that a certain amount of credits come from their institution. I'm curious what the most common number is.
Don't think the schools in my area have any limits. They just won't give you any transfer credit beyond the intro level.
That's common at a lot of schools. It's to prevent people from taking 117 credit hours at Ohio state, then transferring into harvard for a semester to get the Veritas diploma.
