As I look back at it, my post misses out on another aspect: the community aspect of being in college. Programming is a sport, one that requires a lot of dedication and focus. It's very important to be self-disciplined if you want to learn programming on your own. Even if you go to a bootcamp, it's best to pick one that you know will be rigorous. In college, you will be surrounded by students who are most likely going through the same challenges, so you will get the guidance and support you need to push through the difficult phase and achieve mastery.
