“Obviously I’m going to try for internships and such once I’m in college but I still, I was wondering if having no work experience (other than volunteering) will put me at a major disadvantage.”

Honest answer: you will be at a disadvantage for top internships. I’m doing one at a top cs company right now, specifically aimed at freshman and sophomore candidates, and yet everyone on my team has already had an internship or two (or more).
