Switched Majors from Graphic Design to Web, need advice.
Hey /r/webdev, I spent the last year and a half of my life as a graphic design student. A few months ago it hit me that I wasn't in the right program, so I dropped out and moved home. Web courses were built into the program I was in, and I took an introductory web class which taught me a lot about HTML and CSS. I really enjoyed every minute of it, more than any of my crappy art classes, and produced a very basic site that I was actually really proud of. I realized that it would be more rewarding as a career than graphic design would have ever been for me. In order to please my parents after leaving school (they're paying for everything), I immediately enrolled into a 2 year web dev program at a local CC after moving home, and I'm taking a total of 5 web development classes this upcoming semester, which I feel may of been a mistake I made in the heat of the moment.
Basically, I'm pretty much fed up with wasting my time, making mistakes, and waiting around even longer for my career to happen. After doing a lot of research, I'm pretty convinced that it's completely unnecessary for me to complete a degree considering the nature of this field. While I'm still going to attend the classes I signed up for this semester (they're already paid for), I'm really into the idea of taking advantage of this next semester and completely immerse myself with coding in and out of the classroom. My goal is to bail on the rest of my education, and ambitiously go after an entry level dev job this summer/fall.
My issue is, besides what will be spoon-fed to me in the classroom, I don't really know where to start and what I need to learn in order to prepare myself for an entry-level position in the field, without a degree. I have HTML and CSS pretty much down, touched a little bit on JS, and I have one website that can be used for a portfolio, but that's basically it. If anyone could give me any advice or point me in a direction that can help me get myself where I need to be, I would greatly appreciate it. I would also really appreciate any insight on whether this is a realistic approach to take or not, so I know I'm not in over my head if I devote the next 4/5 months of my life solely to coding. Thanks for taking the time to read guys!
TL;DR - Just enrolled in an associates degree Web Dev program that I realized is unnecessary to landing a job in this field, looking for advice on what I can do to start teaching myself while in school, so I can leave the program and get an entry level job sooner.
