Stanford SCPD/HCL computer Science
Hello, my employer pays up to 50k in school tuition and I want to use it to earn MSCS degree from Stanford. I already have a MS degree in information technology and MBA from great public universities. My undergraduate degree GPA wasn’t great but both of my MS & MBA degree GPA are 3.4+. Currently got accepted as Non-degree student. My plan is to take 2-3 CS courses then apply next year as SCPD/HCL degree seeking. Will my undergrad GPA still be relevant and did anyone here got accepted into Stanford SCPD and how was your experience. YOE: 8 years TC: $150k #stanford #tech
50k annually? Shit that’s good
No, 25k annually for 2 years
What’s ROI after this you think?
If you spent less time you can double your tc. Why spent time for 30%
Please keep in mind taking these courses does not significantly increase the chances of you getting an admission. Don't mean to discourage you but the scpd courses are nowhere as selective as the masters so keep that in mind when you plan.
Copy that. Thanks
There’re also non scpd courses, presumably the same as from Masters program (like CS103). Is it worth taking them, without the official enrollment to the Masters program? Are they helpful if I decide to enroll to full fledged masters program after all?
Take some. If not, it is good for a different graduate school.
