Yeah, but getting a degree (so that people know you're any good) is a tad more expensive than "next to nothing."
Perhaps not $65k, but not too far off (depending on where you go). If you choose a cheaper school, there can be issues with getting a job or getting the salary you want (as I've heard it said, anyway).
- sly_foxx 11y agoJust look at programming jobs ads. When it comes to degree requirements, ads can be divided into 4 cases: 1) No degree required (not mentioned). 2) Stated that you need either a degree or show some code you've created. 3) Stated that a degree is required. Here you could contact them, show them samples of your work, list all of your experiences and offer to do additional tests if you don't have a degree. 4) Stated that a degree is required and they will only hire you if you got a degree.
