Who is studying in the IT field?

Question

IT education

I am a student of the 9th grade, the question arose of who is studying, where to go to college or university, I don’t know HTML, CSS badly, I rummage a little in Linux and I’m pretty prosharny in Windows, I understand the computer device. I want to have a permanent job, I think to go into information security or web development, if in web then by whom? Who better to learn so that you can find a job and don’t offend with a salary) or maybe go to a programmer, let’s say C++ or Java? bottom line: where is it better to go to college or university? Who better to learn?

Answer 1

University
UPD.
Definitely go to college. Moreover, I will not tire of repeating - choose the best possible, "cool" and prestigious university that you can afford. That's right on the maximum bar, pulling all the veins.
The university will give you systemic knowledge.
The university gives you a block of time in which you can easily study, try different things, test all your theories, life and technical, and you will not get anything for it.
Most importantly, the university will give you connections, acquaintances. Most likely, the university party will be with you throughout your life, after the university, friends make very tight.
Why you should try to get into the best institution that you can - in short and on your fingers: 20 years will pass (and they will fly by with lightning speed, you won’t notice) -> if you graduate from a conditional MIT or Berkeley - your university friends will be in the leading companies of the Valley if you graduate from the conditional Moscow State University - your university friends will be in Moscow companies (and someone in the Valley, yes), if you graduate from a local university - basically the party will settle in Moscow and in your city, if you go to college - the majority your kents will stay nearby, around you, in the markets, shops, in small offices, and you will be able to regularly gather and drink beer under Zenith matches on a big TV set. Cozy, huh.
Yes, there are some exceptions. Yes, I am childhood friends with a man who left the second year of TSURE, was engaged in self-education and now works in a good position at Cray Inc. Yes, you can screw up life at the university - swell, lose, drag yourself through the chicks and end up with an unclear diploma, I don’t understand what prospects are in the far pen of Magnit. But it's up to you where and how.
Learn. It is important.

Answer 2

To study programming, a university, especially a college, is not required. Start right now, on your own, from books. (Video courses are an extremely stupid source of information that steals time.) The sooner you start, the better. And as soon as possible, learn to learn on your own, because it will still have to do the rest of your life, as they say.
A university can be useful in two main ways: it gives a piece of paper about education, which is required in the state. offices (if it doesn’t work out in a normal one) or when applying for a job in other countries, and provided that the university is really decent, it gives fundamental knowledge, which, however, website developers are not really needed.

Answer 3

Think about what you like. I was interested in HTML in the ninth grade, I learned it and did not think what exactly I would become, I just wanted to make websites. And then life put everything in its place)

Answer 4

Well, if you can now master the entrance to the university, then of course go to the university.
If not, go to college and try to enter the university again every next year (no one really bothers you while studying in college, simultaneously submitting documents and trying to pass the entrance exams)
For whom - it’s not very important. Any IT faculty. All the same, you will master the knowledge that is needed directly for work on your own, and at the university you will learn how to study, expand your horizons, erudition and related areas.
