First of all, 26 is young, and it's great you've reached this realization now. Second: there was just a story in the NYT I think about how over 25% of coders in NY startups have no college degree. In the industry I come from (web startups) you just need to be awesome at what you do. No one cares about a college degree. On the contrary, people with other backgrounds are considered more well rounded and can contribute to the company in many ways. I say forget the CS, learn a coding language you love and go for it. You'll be happier! Good luck.
