I reread the Columbus State requirements for unconditional admission which states that:
a passing grade of B or better in courses substantially equivalent to
CPSC 6105 - Fundamental Principles of Computer Science and Data Structures, and
CPSC 6106 â Fundamentals of Computer Programming and Data Structures
So you could take those two leveling courses (Grad level) for around $600 each and then be admitted into the program. You could then use the MIT Open Courseware to get you up to speed in the other subjects.
Data Structures is so integral (and challenging) that I would take the first leveling course and decide if you want to move forward with the CS program. If you make it through those two leveling courses then you should be able to handle the rest of the degree program.
I say go for it, if you have the interest.
