Coding and the concepts taught in a CS course aren’t necessarily the same. I think you should choose education if you have a wish to learn what CS courses teach including but not limited to:
- Algorithm optimization
- Logic Gates
- Cryptography
- Compilers
- Assembly
Further studies are available to those who exist in school programs if you wish to get a higher level degree and do the research associated with it.
That said, I don’t think you necessarily need this to code.
Lastly, if it’s about a job, a degree will most certainly help you get thru a blind first filter. However, it is definitely possible to show your work and experience without as well thru open source contributions and the like — so this really is a choice you’ll have to make.
If it was me with these options, I would go to school for free with the scholarship and work on open source projects simultaneously.
