First of all, to be able to get in to a good college/university, start off by doing good in school now. Academically inclined students are what colleges are looking for. As for your plans on the courses you are going to take, just maintain your interest in computers and that should get you going.

My advice is that you have to be 100% sure of what you want to get into. You wouldn't want to regret getting in a course that you realized isn't your interest, it would not be advisable to quit or shift to another course because it would set you back especially if your shifting to an entirely different course.

Anyway, good luck with your preparations, it is important to figure out what you want to be while you are still young. Stay focused in your studies, and again, good luck.

For cyber security, I suggest going to an online school to practice removing malware to advance your knowledge in security. Shoot me a pm for some sites.
