Coursera appears to have created an answer to edX's MicroMasters programs.

Machine Learning for Analytics MasterTrack™ Certificate
$4,000 WOW
the good part is
"If you are admitted to the full Master’s program, your MasterTrack™ Certificate counts towards your degree."
I don't see where it says how much of it counts towards the degree though
edit: I found it under Frequently Asked Questions
How do I turn my MasterTrack™ Certificate into university credit?
Once you have completed your MasterTrack coursework, you may apply to the MScA degree program from the University of Chicago. If admitted, your MasterTrack Certificate will equate to the first two classes in the program (approximately 18% of course requirements), allowing you to get a headstart on your degree.

$4,000 is way too much imo. MITx micromasters are about 1k.
RE: Coursera MasterTrack - sanantone - 06-17-2019
Construction Engineering and Management - $2,000
Instructional Design - $2,316
Machine Learning for Analytics - $4,000
Spatial Data Analysis and Visualization - $3,000
I don't know why they're so vague about how many credits you can transfer. I'd rather read, you can transfer X out of X credits than "you can transfer 17% of the degree." I can't even find how much of the degree can be completed with the construction engineering MasterTrack certificate.

yeah, looking at the university of chicago page for masters in analytics
https://grahamschool.uchicago.edu/academic-programs/masters-degrees/analytics/curriculum
I'm wondering if the only thing the machine learning mastertrack covers is
- Statistics Bootcamp (noncredit)
- 2 Foundational courses (1 credit, 1 noncredit)

I was looking it is pretty hard to transfer the Master degree credit to State university. I ask them and they told me it can not transfer.
