Don't bet on it. I have been consulting for many years, and the majority of my clients discount those with no college degree (doesn't usually matter what in), if they consider them at all. I don't really like to admit it, and I know many counter-examples personally, but this is generally my default view as well.

It might be the city. I moved from a city where there was a lot of silliness like that. Now I'm in a city with a lot of tech jobs. I haven't had an education section on my resume for a long time through many interviews; I usually get the job. No interviewer even mentioned the omission. (Although one did express surprise later that he hadn't noticed it!)
