In that case, I would drop school. If you wish to expand your IT skills and have the ability to learn on your own, do so. Some people can't, they need a "school" or atleast someone pushing them......but for those who can it's a great advantage.

Atleast you can choose what to learn and learn the latest technologies, something standard universities don't offer

As for marketing, almost everything you'd learn in school is "common sense". Learn from the net, it's a lot more upto date (esp. if you want to focus on online marketing versus offline marketing)
