Get a job in cyber-security with only online colleges?

Hey so im 18 and ive spent the most part of the past year thinking about what the hell to do with my life now that i did my leaving cert (with in all honesty the results were atrocious) and after alot of looking around and stuff i landed on cyber security as it seems intresting, i love everything I.T and i want to learn how to code anyways.

So anyways since most good positions in this field require things on the level of a bachelors degree in things like computer sciences this kinda put me infront of a significant problem as the idea of going to college frightens me greatly, not just the fear of getting rejected but also i cannot deal in social environments atall (aka im a huge shut in who spends his life infront of a computer screen)

So i was wondering weather degrees from online colleged are accepted enough to allow me to pursue a career in cyber security?

You could look at something a bit more usual, like DCU. They have online IT degrees

and then specialise after, but i;m guessing you may not want to wait that long

I’d recommend some counciling to or possibly social exciting groups. These problems don’t go away when your young. You need to face them head on as hard as that sounds. You will have a more fulfilling life the sooner you do it.
