Based on my location and cost constraints BGSU was the only option I have available, and I did not meet the requirements for the masters program.

- maximilian 19y agoDid you actually talk to the profs? Just ask them and be like: I wanna learn CS. I know how to code already, but I wanna learn all the fun stuff. They'll probably be very sympathetic and let you in anyway.
- suboptimal 19y agobrent, why not an MBA? With your finance background and (I presume) a bunch of undergraduate business courses under your belt it should be quick and easy. There's no degree requirement for hackers--"MBA coder with financial sector experience" sounds pretty good, and you can keep working on your HNd here among like-minded comrades. You could also try to use the program as a platform to launch your startup: business plan competitions, networking, possible co-founders or employees among your fellow students, etc. I'm sure you've considered this--I'm just surprised you (or anybody else) didn't mention it.
