That's a hard question and I expect there'll be lots of wildly different answers. This is applicable to me, as an EU college non-CS dropout.

What matters most is to show competence. If you can make someone interested in some things that you've built, you can probably make do without a degree, but you'll have a tougher time getting through the door.

My two cents is try to stick with your formation, while you build yourself something impressive. Chances are you'll pick up something useful and the social network of peers will help you at least as much as the formation itself.

Best of luck whatever you choose!
