I want to major in computer engineering. Should I self-study AP Stats?

CS majors are often required to take a discrete math course, but AP statistics is not likely to be accepted in place of it. And if a statistics course is required, it will probably be a calculus-based engineering statistics course, which again means that AP statistics is not likely to be accepted in place of it.

See if a discrete math or calculus-based statistics course is offered at your community college (which one?). Note that each of these is typically just a one semester course.

In California, use http://www.assist.org to see how the community college courses match up with courses required for your intended major at UCs and CSUs.
