Since you already have coding experience and your foot in the door at a tech company, my suggestion is to look for a lateral move(either internal or external).

Since you already have coding experience and your foot in the door at a tech company, my suggestion is to look for a lateral move(either internal or external). Something that allows you to leverage your current skill set. I would suggest looking into roles such as: customer success, account management, technical consulting (sales), or support. As for college, I can only speak to my personal experience. I went to college at 26 and regret it. I often refer to it as my ‘lost years’
