Sigs, banners and the like are a good start to give you an idea on small scale design, but that is not what Graphic Design is entirely. In Graphic Design, you have to understand that it may be nice or cool to have all the fancy effects in a design, but it is often times unnecessary, and simple graphics are enough to make a design successful. It's like the saying goes, Keep It Simple.
Graphic Design is a very broad subject so it can take on many different forms. Graphic Design can and may expand into subject areas such as advertising, newsletters, billboards, posters, print media, corporate identity, web design, interactive design, prototype design, freelance, etc. to name a few.
It's kinda one of those things where you have to experience it for yourself to see if you really enjoy it. There really isn't anything that you need to know. Most of the concepts and theories they will teach you anyway. Things like Color Theory, or Typography, or organizing objects in space. Like I said, it takes on many different forms and styles, you just never know what may be out there. If you enjoy drawing, making art and designs, and have an interest in learning more about it, I say go for it. Do a little bit of research and see what you like. Even if you don't like to draw, or if you're not good at it, but still have an interest in design, go for it anyway. I guarantee that you'll have fun with it.
