How do I get out of retail?

I’m 24(m), just starting going to college after taking a gap year which turned into a 5 year gap after high school. Did nothing but work dead end jobs now I’m in retail for about 3.5yrs and I hate it. I’ve worked customer service for the past 7 yrs. I just feel lost, tried applying to entry level office jobs but keep getting rejected. Any advice or help?
