Im looking to persue a bachelors degree in either cybersecurity or web development (i havent decided which one yet). I dont really know much about either of those but i have a desire to learn, as the job market for computers is growing everyday. Any advice will be appreciated, thanks!

American Military University. There are recruiters and advisors from AMU on RP as well. I look forward to learning from this thread as I may go for a degree with AMU.

Don't forget there are also certifications and online training to show your knowledge on sites like cybrary.it, edx, coursera, and many others.

Web development doesn't necessarily need a degree. It's one of those jobs that a client will want to see a portfolio for. Still, classes definitely won't hurt. If you want to get your feet wet, here's a good link to check out. It's free.

https://www.codecademy.com/

The "Make a website" course is a good place to start, however, I'd also recommend "Learn Java" and "JavaScript"

I would also recommend this link.

Cyber security is a broad field so my recommendation is to take a look at the different aspects of cyber security and go for the one you like the best. Here's a few colleges to look into.

When it comes to trusted online colleges for computer disciplines like web development and cybersecurity, one institution that stands out is Oregon State University's Ecampus. Oregon State University is known for its powerful computer science program and their online offerings are no exception.

Ecampus offers a variety of degree programs and certificates related to computer science, including web development and cybersecurity. They offer a comprehensive curriculum that covers both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, ensuring that students are well prepared to work in the industry.

However, if you need a convenient option for developing your own mobile applications or web solutions, then training may not be necessary. It is enough to turn your attention to solutions like https://keenethics.com/, this will be a simpler and more logical solution for momentary tasks. I can recommend, because I interacted with them personally.
