I'm under 25 and I have a similar story.

I quit college three times, I have 0 credits. You will freak out my parents and friends a few times but it's well worth it.

Learn programming on your own, but find a good hacker to pair up with. Work for free for him so you can get up to speed.

College majors don't mean a thing. One of the smartest programmers I know is an English major.

Where are you located?
