Get the 2 year degree and then go for the 4 year degree. If you drop out after 2 years in a 4 year degree program, you're a dropout. If you drop out after two years and you graduated from the 2 year degree, you're a "graduate".
As for IT training certs, the only one I trusted for SQL Server (MCM) has been discontinued. I'd also trust someone with a CISCO certification. Heh... notice that I didn't say that I'd trust the 2 or 4 year degree but those do look good on the resume. Just plan on living up to the alphabet soup after your name during an interview.
As for which schools I'd recommend for IT, look for schools that give you serious amounts of hands-on time and require you to pass "lab exams" (CISCO certs are like that). That's one of the things that made the MCM cert so great. I've not attended any of their classes but schools like "Lawrence Tech" here in Southfield, Michigan are good starts according the some of the talent I've seen come out of such schools.
Like anything else, though, "It Depends" and "YMMV" and "depends on what you put into it".
