degree is nice but not necessary. if you're a web dev already, you're basically qualified.
Build a small app on the side and start applying to every software engineering job you can, to get more interviewing experience

- supertofu 4y agoI have applied to hundreds of SWE jobs and have only gotten 2-3 interview requests, unfortunately. I've optimized my resume for keywords and have decent portfolio projects (simple but visually appealing web apps that use APIs). I think my resume is failing the filters because I don't have a BS.
