Sounds like you are an entrepreneur that would look to launch or be part of a start-up so it begs the question: why go to college at all?
If it is just for the contacts and a piece of paper just do a the shortest business or engineering course you can and do it online via something like Open University so that you can focus on building some business ideas or working for a startup. Try get an internship or voluntarily role at Google or Facebook, Twitter etc - what you will learn there and the contacts you will get will be invaluable, even if you work on the business rather than technical side.
3-5 years of college and grad school will be an absolute waste of time for you. You don't actually learn anything in college of use, you hopefully just learn how to learn but you can do this on your own time for cheaper. Also the contacts but there are better ways of getting a good network together. When I hire or interview someone I only look at their experience, especially any side and personal projects they have, I relay don't care what they studied or what college they went to. MBA's are even more of a waste of time and money
Just don't do a finance course and become a banker: http://rakkhi.blogspot.com/2010/07/turning-bankers-to-engineers-in.html http://rakkhi.blogspot.com/2010/07/turning-bankers-to-engine...
