There's UPenn's Online MSIT and GeorgiaTech's OMSCS.

Are you located in the US? I'm surprised to hear about the Masters degree requirements. From what I read on forums and communities like TeamBlind and r/cscareerquestions, a masters is completely unnecessary unless you want to go into data science.

Oh yeah, in addition to the competency based degree options I linked earlier in post #6, Pikachu mentioned a couple of MOOC's. Basically, that is another option as these can be done in partnership with Coursera, Edx, FutureLearn, Udacity, and if you can handle it, UpGrad as well. I would check out another high ranking institution, U of Texas-Austin...

Penn's relevant online options would actually be an MCIT "specifically for students without a background in computer science" or an MSE in Data Science.

look for something different

Honestly, maybe so. My eldest just got a decent job as a programmer with a BS from Charter Oak with the Information Systems concentration (same degree as mine; it's not even the CompSci concentration). The lesson was that if you can program, and your GitHub profile shows it, then you're hirable.
BS, Information Systems concentration, Charter Oak State College
MA in Educational Technology Leadership, George Washington University
18 doctoral level semester-hours in Business Administration, Baker College
In progress: EdD in Educational Leadership, Manhattanville College
