You can get a job as a Sys Admin without a degree of any sorts. I did it. Now I had to take the crap jobs for about 9 years not making jack squat for a salary. But then I got into that one place after I got my "or equal experience" time and here I am... A Sys Admin... Yes it is possible but you have to do the crap jobs first to get up to the good job.
