I don't see it as "looking for a bootcamp", and that sure sounds classist in a bad way. Bootcamps are highly non-standard and usually weak, with very little time spent on the fundamentals of computing. (building an OS or compiler, theory of computation, etc.) Wanting to avoid college nonsense isn't the same as wanting a bootcamp. It is legitimate to want a 4-year degree that is 100% meat, no fluff. The desired degree would be like a BS plus MS, minus the AA that is built into every BS.

There are an awful lot of people wanting that. Schools don't want to offer it because the instructors would be costly, because demand for BS/MS combined degrees would go down, because administrators personally love non-technical subjects, and so on. Standardization and accreditation are additional barriers to giving students what students want, though conveniently both are under the influence of the schools.
