Hi! I'm trying to find a good online program to get Bachelor's degree in CS, my goal is to switch careers and get into AI and Machine Learning. I will also likely need the degree to apply for the AI/ML Master's program(OMSCS).

I'm a self-taught programmer(web developer), I have a bachelor's degree in a field unrelated to tech.

I want to master the fundamentals of Computer Science, and all the Math I need to be ready for an AI/ML Master's program (and for studying ML on my own). Getting a degree is also important to me - so I need both the knowledge and the credentials.

Can you recommend some good options? What criteria should I use to pick the best one? What should I keep in mind?

I would really appreciate any help!
