    I have two classes to go in the Fall to complete my M.Sc. in Computer Science. Are there any online MBA's that would waive any requirements or give me some credit for this master's degree?

    Thanks!

    It's unlikely. I've never heard of a program that will accept credits that were applied to the completion of another degree. If you had 6 stand alone graduate credits some schools would take them, assuming they were relevant to the program.

    I agree. But since I have to show at least 10 characters I'll say once again, I agree.

    Amberton will take 12 credits and I called them at one point and asked if they would take credits from a completed program and they said yes. I am sure there are a few others. You just have to look around.

    MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
    GENERAL BUSINESS
    ** Refer to pages 111-112 in the Amberton University Catalog v. 40 for the University’s Graduate Transfer of Credit policy. http://www.amberton.edu/Degrees/Graduate/PDF/MBA_GENERAL_BUSINESS.pdf

    GRADUATE TRANSFER OF CREDITS
    Assuming work is allowed to transfer from an accredited institution, the following
    guidelines will be followed:
    1. Transfer work from another regionally accredited institution will be evaluated
    upon admission.
    2. No grade below B will be accepted as transfer work.
    3. Individual courses will be accepted, but no grade points. Each Amberton
    University transfer student will begin with a new grade point average.
    4. No more than twelve (12) hours maximum will be allowed in transfer toward
    a graduate degree.
    5. All work allowed in transfer to Amberton University on a graduate level
    must be directly related to courses offered at Amberton University.
    6. Graduate hours will not be evaluated for transfer until the official transcript
    of the bachelor's degree is received.
    7. The age of transfer work may influence transferability.

    You might want to talk to Northcentral University. They might waive credits for the specialization courses. They do have Advance computer science and MIS and you might get some of these courses waived.

    NCU said if my MSCS was not completed yet I could transfer credits, but if it's conferred I cannot. It sounded strange like credits towards one degree cannot go towards another. I don't want to do anything to jeopardize my MSCS.

    It's not strange. It's pretty standard practice.

    ERAU gave me credit for 3 courses (9 units) from my MSQA. They took these from my MSQA transcript they were aware they were from a prior degree. Not sure if this policy exists today.
