I have the same question, except the only difference is that I'm in at a community college in Souther California right now and I will be transferring and about a year. Right now I'm on a path to go to some UC and get probably a B.A. in Computer Science. I don't want to go into programming necessarily because my passion is really design, especially web related design, UX, and web development.

I just figured Computer Science would be the best path because I find it interesting and it will open up more opportunities for me in the future. However recently I've been discouraged because of all the math I'm going to have to get through.

I'd love to hear some insight about what would be the best way to get into the field. What school is best? What major? I'd preferably like to stay in California.
