A guy from my school was into comic too. He was working towards a degree in English while he was drawing on the side for free. Many places would take freebies, that would perhaps help you build a portfolio for show? But I am no expert in this matter, I hardly ever read comic books.
I really just want to urge you to stay in school. I know most of us want the diploma for jobs, I did, so I am not trying to sound all good and almighty here. But study something that is interesting to you, never mind at all what job it will get you. Go to school for the sake of learning and enriching yourself, do it because you want to be more knowledgeable about whatever interests you. That's how I got through college. Before I adopted this attitude, school was hellish.
