Worst case scenario: You fail utterly, you're a whole lot smarter, and if you really want/need to, you go back to school.
With the experience gained, you make a better decision about what you want to study, because you'll know how you want to use it and you'll know what you don't like doing. (I'd give anything to be able to go back in time and choose CS instead of what I did study, back when I was 18, stupid, and locking myself into college.)
More likely than not, you'll re-join college with awesome work opportunities that carry through until after you graduate, where great prospects are waiting for you.
On the other hand, you could build something amazing that alters the trajectory of your whole career.
