If you want to get a proper education and a degree, that is possibly the only way to go nowadays. The Wysuckie College for the Totally Dumb (SAE, Full Sail and sadly many others) churn out 'graduates' by the thousands World wide and just about every college that is short of a few Bucks, starts an audio course.
I am not saying that Wysuckie is necessarily a bad place to go and you will learn nothing, but all the Wysuckies of this World are not regarded as a serious education by the industry.
A for V is somewhat different, as there is a real danger that you might actually find a job. But sound design is also a fraught field and I would suggest just doing some intern work at an A for V house, telling them about your experience so far, and combine it with some formal education and possible courses in PT and other platforms.
Aren't there some proper film schools in LA? I am sure that they would provide a good grounding in Sound Design - and would be an ideal place to meet people and network.
