I'm pretty sure you'll need to have taken the core CS courses via an actual college or university to be considered for the OMSCS. While they don't specifically state non-ACE in their requirements, they will look at your transcript as part of the approval process and I suspect they will probably not consider ACE credit courses on the same level as university courses. They are trying to only invite candidates who they think will excel in their program, so they want people who have demonstrated high academic rigor.
Hey Merlin, I'm going through TESU now with Compsci and Math AOS, but most computer science credits are made of ACE/Study.com, do you think that's going to be a problem? Do we know in the forum if people have gotten through admissions even with ACE credits for core subjects?
