MIS vs. CS degrees
#11
I would say that for use in getting software developer jobs that care about a degree, the degree better be CS, software development, or EE. Some people do well with Math or hard science plus lots of experience. An IT/IS degree is going to be questioned and may not work a lot better than no degree. The liberal studies degree even more so. A master's program might go along with the IT degree if you have enough CS credits and experience, but I'd research the programs you want to apply to.

In your shoes, I'd bite the bullet and do the CS degree. You'll breeze through the CS courses and should be able to do it quickly.
NanoDegree: Intro to Self-Driving Cars (2019)
Coursera: Stanford Machine Learning (2019)
TESU: BA in Comp Sci (2016)
