There are several. The two that come to mind: University of Maryland, University College (UMUC) [1] and Oregon State's Post-bachelors program [2]. If you search /r/cscareerquestions, you'll find some posts about each.
I am currently finishing up semester two of seven at UMUC's program. It's okay. Why am I in it? It's free for me.
I'm not sure what GT's masters program delivers, but UMUC's online program hasn't changed since it's inception (the 90s, I think). There are no online lectures and little guidance from professors. I read a text book, do exercises, submit assignments, take tests. I do like the structure and pace (two classes a semester), and I'll have a bachelors in computer science.

- aptwebapps 12y agoThanks for the links and /r/cscareerquestions looks like a good resource.
- cgearhart 12y agoIt looks like the OSU program requires a bachelors degree in another subject and the UMUC program is $60,000 in tuition (for out of state students; $32,000 in state) - which is about 3x what I paid for my undergrad tuition 5 years ago. Not that it isn't worth the cost, but that price is a prohibitive barrier to lots of prospective students.
