coursera & edX : Masters - I put my applications in! - bjcheung77 - 11-26-2020

Haha...Well, I had nothing better to do, so for today, I applied, yay!
Yeah, I haven't taken the GRE, so these two from U of Texas (Austin) was a good option!

UoT CS is the best among the three I think...
Too bad there's no online undergrad programs available on Edx. I mean, there's coursera UoL program but I want to see more top-tier US universities' online Bachelor in Informatics or IT programs on Edx. Goldsmiths University is not very well-known in North America and they don't let you finish their program any faster than fixed three year part-time schedule.

I'm just curious, how did you fulfill the prerequisite coursework math requirements for Calculus and Linear Algebra for the Data Science program? You can give a "personal statement" alone to prove this? I would just like to know what proof is required (if any), because I might consider this program as an alternative to Eastern University.

You can take an online course on related topics and provide the certificate as supporting material. I use this approach to prove my requirements for Statistics in other institutions.
Another method is to take individual classes at college. You can use the transcripts as evidence.
