You don’t need to go to MIT or Stanford… assuming you’d get in. Boot camps are extremely expensive per hour. Some are 12k! I can go to school for 12 terms at 9 credits per term with that money. It’s almost all the credits you need for a bachelor. Yes it’s a cheap in state school, not MIT, but it’s easier to sell a “Bachelor degree” than “did a boot camp” no matter where they come from when trying to get your foot in the door. Now time is a different thing, but I don’t know if dumping 12k in a bootcamp gets you there in better shape than quitting your job and building your own plan of study.
