Would working experience helps my MSCS application? + Evaluation Request

Recommended Posts

I just graduated from University of Pittsburgh in Computer Engineering. My GPA is merely 3.3. But, I still want to go for my master degree.

I will be go back to China and start to work around the end of February 2018. I will 2 courses from OMS CS Ga Tech at Fall 2018. ( I would assume I can get at least A-s).

When I apply for my Fall 2019, would the time I already worked be counted as the time of my work experience (~Half year) ? Or the time prior to Fall 2019 (One and half year)?

Should I consider apply for Fall 2020 for better chances? 

 

Here are my goals for my MSCS application:

Ambitious:


USC (CS general, Game Dev)

Ga Tech(MSCS through OMS CS transfer)

UPenn (CGGT, an one year program)

Dartmouth (MS in CS with digital art)

UCI (MCS)
NYU (MSCS)

 

Safe:

while(not admitted && not given up)
{

       Continue working and apply for next fall. 

}

I don't think you understand. OMSCS leads to the exact same degree as the on campus version 

It's quite complicated. This diploma does not come with a F-1 Visa. So, I cannot use it for the proof of oversea graduate-level education which is crucial for the residency in Beijing. (That residency likely costs more than my tuition )
