College or The Army?

I know a lot more who went into the military with similar plans but never made it to college after they got out. The reason is that during their army years life has a way of intervening.

This has been my observation, as well. IMHO, if a career in CS is your goal and ROTC isn’t an option, it’s better to commute from home to a local college or community college, than to enlist in the service with some vague intention of going to college later.
