True (at least most of the time)

Ideally companies will require their systems analysts to have a college degree in information systems, computer science, business, or a closely related field.

But sometimes the demand for people with a degree in computer science or information systems is much larger than the supply, then many companies go directly to the colleges and hire students who haven't graduated yet.

I know this since a few years ago a local university issued a public statement about this issue since less that 30% of their students (in computer related fields) actually graduated. Most of the students were hired by Intel, IBM and HP during their third college year and they dropped out. Of course the students left because they were offered high salaries, imagine if you are 20 or 21 years old and a huge corporation offers you over $70,000 a year. I'm not sure that this is still happening, but I doubt it has changed.
