Because I can't switch into a CS major here.

  "can't" and "it's very hard" are very different things -- and it seems like if they're gating CS majors entrance it's a highly sought after program? One that would be almost certainly worth more than the online options? If it is completely impossible, then there is no choice, if you want to do CS and these are your only two choices (they're not -- dunno what state you're in but there might be other good in-state schools you could transfer to). If it's not impossible, but hard, then you need to apply elbow grease or talk to whichever counselors and pester whoever else can get you in, and show that you have what it takes.

    I'll put it this way - my friend tried to switch after his freshman year (where it gets tricky) and even with a recommendation from a professor who is a _big_ deal in the cybersecurity research community, he was denied because he was coming from business and not first year engineering.
