It's essentially impossible as an early undergrad to understand the proof. If you're really desperate to be able to understand it within the next 5 years, here is a 400-page book aimed at helping undergrads understand the proof.

I'm in the same position you are, but I think it depends on algebraic geometry as developed by the Grothendieck school, among other things. I'm trying to study some of the prerequisites for tackling Hartshorne's Algebraic Geometry. Maybe this would help you get started: Invitation to the Mathematics of Fermat-Wiles. I haven't looked at it, though.

I haven't read this book cover to cover, but I've flipped through it a number of times at my uni library. Seemed like a pretty good introductory text. https://www.amazon.com/Invitation-Mathematics-Fermat-Wiles-Yves-Hellegouarch/dp/0123392519
