Cerification and No Degree.

| I heard that certifications with experience and no degree,
is more valuable than anyone with a degree. Now is that
true?

Experience, Experience, Experience. That is, both technical and
business Experience.
Having said that, everyone has to start somewhere, and this is where
education comes in to play. This is what makes you stand out from the
rest (or at least stand out with the best of the rest!), and is what
employers look for.

You more than likely would have regretted that for the rest of your
life, that is unless you won one of the state lotteries! Think of it
this way, you don't want to end up living in a dumpster like me do
you!!!
Good luck.

You should try to get the highest gradepoint average you can get.
Getting the degree is the most important part, but your gradepoint will
be a factor in determining what job you'll get.
In my opinion, your gradepoint is important for about your first 5 or
10 years in the business. After that, your experience is more important
than your gradepoint.
When I went to college my father told me that the gradepoint wasn't too
important as long as you get the degree. I spent 10 years regretting
that I listened to his advice on this :-(
