Similar situation and yes I have done that and far beyond. I even work in a field where it is just assumed I have a degree and people are always extremely shocked when I mention that I do not.
I am under the impression it is not possible to CLEP computer science classes or in any way get recognition for this. Is that correct?
Edit: specify CLEP for computer science
- ams6110 8y agoGood question. Are there any accredited graduate programs or professional programs that will accept students without undergrad degrees but with good GRE scores?
- meltek 8y agoNo undergrad at all? That would be fairly rare. Non CS undergrad? Lots of universities have programs or tracks for CS masters from a non-CS background. I have seen a few universities set up accelerated professional CS BA/BS in the past five years or so. A more common path that I have seen from self thought developers that "needed the degree" has been doing a reputable local or online BA/BS part-time. edit: grammar & formating
- ThrowawayR2 8y agoYou can take the GRE for CS without being a student, as proof of your knowledge. I have heard of very rare cases where people have been admitted to a professional master's program (different from the regular master's program in that it's meant for working professionals) without having a degree.
