If you're OK learning on your own, you might try buying a book before committing to the cost of tuition, also. If you really mean "theoretical CS" I don't think you can go wrong with Sipser. The latest edition[1] is expensive, but a used copy of the second edition [2] isn't TOO bad, considering the cost of another few years of education.

- oftenwrong 13y agoI second Sipser's book. Probably the best textbook I used in university. You can find international editions for a very low price.
