When I studied my BsC in Computer Science 20 years ago it was a grueling 5 years with lots of cruft and fluff. Even the more useful parts weren't particularly current, e.g. we used waterfall for all of our projects. I'm convinced today you could become a better engineer with 1 years of self directed and focused online learning, for a fraction of the cost (even free). Also, although the credentials of a good school are nothing to scoff at, simply being good at leetcode (and maybe a small portfolio of personal projects) goes a long way to getting you a job. It's definitely more time efficient.
