Anyone whose been in the mainstream industry knows that certification is much more respected than a degree in Computer Science or a related field. A BS in a related field will get you in a management position, but to get a decent job you must have 3 years of experience. A BS in CS will count for 2 years of experience, you need to have a cert of some type to prove legitimacy. Most college classes are about 4 years behind whats actually going on in the industry. When I was getting my BS, in my networks class we were studying about Bridges, Hub, and Brouters. NOBODY uses that antiquated technology anymore.

Basically if you want a mainstream job in a computer related field, a high end cert like the MSCE or CCNA will help you get what you want much faster than a degree.
