Notes
I studied Liberal Arts for my undergrad and have concentrations/minors that have nothing to do with Information Technology or Computer Science, but I have done some IT related coursework after graduation, my post-transfer GPA was a 4.0, community college GPA was a 3.94. I did not take the GRE. I have been working at a Fortune 100 company for several years in the IT sector. I was given full admission into the Data Analytics concentration without needing to take the prerequisite course. Though I initially accepted admission, I deferred, then rejected, my admission as I got into a different program at BU that was more relevant to my career goals. I agree that admissions likely cares more about work experience but I received a $3,000 merit scholarship as well.
