Keep in mind that a computer science degree does not necessary mean that you'll be ready to get a job as a programmer. Computer science will teach you the underlying knowledge that makes info tech work. You'll likely need to take additional classes that will teach you how to be a programmer. Computers are here to stay and there will be a need to write new code and maintain code for many years to come. If I were you I would pick up a book on learning Python and learn to write a few programs to see how you like it. Programing is just one of the many areas you can specialize in with a computer science degree. Look into what else is available. Also you'll need lots of higher level math so keep that in mind. Many computer science majors end up with a minor in math since they have to take so many math classes that it only takes a few more to get the minor. What's funny is that you can't get a CS degree with out the math but as a programmer you are very unlikely to ever have to use much more than algebra. There are some programming areas where you do need the higher math but you mostly won't.
