How's your math?  At many colleges, there are different types of computer majors.  A major in computer programming--i.e., computer science--requires as many math classes as it does computer classes, and often physics too.  Some schools have math and comp sci as one department!  On the other hand, there are majors out there like information systems and business computing, which deal more with computer software, databases, web design, and using computers than programming them.  It's a really different focus than a computer science major!  \n\nYou might not know right now what exactly you want to do with computers, and that's fine.  But I recommend looking at yourself and your skills realistically when you start planning your college career.  You'll probably take a math placement test the summer before your first semester--that score will give you an idea of what math classes you can take.  If you place into remedial math, the honest truth is that you'd have to take several semesters of math, getting up to calculus, before you'd even be allowed to start taking programming classes.  It's still possible to major in comp sci, but it'll be a big challenge.  If you place low in math, then it's likely that information systems might be the major that you'll enjoy more and do better in.\n\nI don't know you: you could be taking AP calc right now and rocking it, in which case you have nothing to worry about and can go where your little heart desires.  But when you pick your college, you should look at the requirements for the different computer-related majors and see if the course descriptions look interesting and if the math and science requirements look do-able for you.  Then, your freshman year, take the highest level math you qualify for, take the intro computer science class if you can, and take the intro business computing class.  See what you like best and what you do the best in.

If there is a college near you with a computer science department, you should hang fliers there.  I'm sure there's a student who would love to do this just for the experience.

Any class that you think you can learn without being in a class. So something you probably know already.

A lot of people just play with it and learn on their own. You may want to check with a local Community College, they sometimes offer basic computer classes to the public for a small fee.
