No, as long as you know your stuff. While a formal education is vital in the advancement of any job, someone who has worked with a programming language for years can be as adequate as someone who worked with it for years in school.
As far as your question with regards to being harder than web development, the answer is no. Actually, web development and computer programming are merging together quite quickly. Very few places setup a website without some sort of server-side programming language supporting it. Most of the sites you see today are written in PHP, ASP, Coldfusion or .NET. They then have scripts that can range from cgi to perl to Java and javascript.
All you have to do is put in the time and dedication to studying a programming language and you can get just as far. Don't be discouraged.
Good luck
Is computer programming harder to get into than web development with only a assoc. degree (jobwise)?
Neither is harder than the other. However I believe it is easier to find a job in web development rather than another development field due to the widespread of web applications.
Technically neither is harder, each has its specific aspects.
