I am starting an MS in CS program in the fall (not at GT) and I just have a BA. They let me in, however I have to take a full academic year of remedial courses first[1]. I would imagine they will do something like that.
[1]Calculus 1 and 2, Intro to Programming, Data Structures, Foundations of CS, Intro to Computer Systems, Intro to Computer Organization, Algorithms and Data Structures, Structures of Programming Languages, Introduction to Finite Automata, Introduction to Operating Systems.
P.S. Anybody know where I can learn any of the above online cheap or free? If I learn it elsewhere I can test out of the classes.

- karpodiem 13y agoMost community colleges "CS" programs consist of IT courses, with a few CS courses mixed in. Which is a shame.

Mine had a lot that mapped directly to my university's (Intro to CS, Data Structures & Algorithms, Language/Topic specific courses - C# and MySQL for example). Meanwhile even the "technical" school in the same system had only two or three basic CS courses. My CC even has a real electronics program! (as opposed to the more common journeyman electrician and solar installer programs) Where theory and practice are taught!
