You have multiple years professional experience in programming. You can probably get onto the Oxford M.Sc. in Software Engineering but the deadline is soon. If you miss it the next one is in March. https://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/graduate/courses/msc-software-engineering?wssl=1 https://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/graduate/courses/msc-softwar... Applicants are normaly expected to be predicted or have achieved a first-class or strong upper second-class undergraduate degree with honours (or equivalent international qualifications), as a minimum, in a related subject, such as computer science, informatics or engineering. For applicants with a degree from the USA, the minimum GPA sought is 3.5 out of 4.0. Applications are invited from anyone with sufficient experience or proven ability in software, security, or data engineering. A typical applicant will have at least two years' experience in a professional environment, and an undergraduate degree in a related subject. However, more extensive experience may compensate for a lack of formal qualifications, and a strong, immediately-relevant qualification may compensate for a lack of professional experience.

That sounds like a really fascinating course to take, and I'm tempted to apply just to see how I fare. The cost is a bit out of my reach if I'm being honest. I do make very good money but I also spend good on two children, rent in California, etc. Thank you for sharing this with me.

  In that case you’re probably better off asking how hard it would be to get onto the Georgia Tech Online Master of Computer Science at www.reddit.com/r/omscs The Master’s itself costs less than $10K still but you’d need to do enough undergraduate courses to have credits sufficient for a Bachelor’s, though I don’t think you actually need to be awarded one. So if I remember right you’d need to do a year’s worth of coursework towards a Bachelor’s and then you’d be admittable. Not sure though, ask in the subreddit.
