No worries. It is a big decision, so you definitely want multiple perspectives. Are you in a position where you can't take a year or two off from school, or perhaps longer, to see where things with this job take you? I know scholarships and financial aid can sometimes leave you with your hands tied, but if this is not the case you might want to consider a leave of absence.

Plenty of people leave school and finish their degrees later on (sometimes much later), so you shouldn't feel bad about leaving it on hold for now, especially since you've got a job lined up.

Yes, taking a year off is an option, but it would mean paying the interest on my student loans. Not a huge problem as I will have to pay them off eventually anyways.

If I do end up taking time off it would only be temporary at first. I would likely give myself one year to make significant progress as a programmer. If, after that year, I'm comfortable with where I am, I will continue to defer school. On the other hand, if I can't see any definitive improvements, I will go back to school and look for another major. If I can't teach myself to program then I see no reason to get a CS degree.
