In general (YMMV):

Certs = quick recognition, quick paper, some managers like, quick job, decent
pay.

Degree = longer time to recognition, longer time to paper, almost all managers
like, good job eventually, better pay over time.

ie. Cert is a good shorter path to a decent thing, Degree is a longer
investment to a better thing.

Why not get some certs to get a pretty good job now and then go to school off
hours for the degree?

Hey all,
Now i wanna start this with a disclaimer. I am not asking anyone to take 
me under thier wing or gimme a chance with them at thier job or even 
find me a job. With that said i just need a little guidance as to which 
route to take in my career. Right now i know that any chance in IT is a 
ways off, maybe two or three years. I just dont know if i should try 
going for a degree or if i should go for certs or both. Sorry for the 
rambling message just feeling alittle confused. Any advice will be welcomed.
Thank you all,
Ray
