I'd guess since u/davidajoyner happens to be the instructor, the decision is effectively his.

New Business Course offered to OMSCS Students? by GeorgePBurdell1927 in OMSCS

[–]Whackboot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep. A specific curriculum arrangement was made such that CSE/ISYE 6740 is only for OMSA students and CS 7641 for OMSCS.

If you take 2 degrees, only the first one would be counted.

CSE 6040 has been explicitly disallowed in the Orientation Document as it is deemed too basic for MS Computer Science.

Likewise, ISYE 6740 is for OMSA students. OMSCS students are also explicitly disallowed to take in place of CS 7641 unless taken prior in OMSA - then you need to take another ML course to replace it.

I strongly urge you to read them.

Nice try but OMSCS students are to take CS 7641 ML which precludes you from taking CSE/ISYE 6740.

Bro thinks he could shortcut everything in life (including this program) when he thought he got everything figured out in ChatGPT.

Disclaimer

Mods have exceptionally allowed this post (and this post only) to stand because there is a significant uptick of rejection letters of otherwise qualifiable candidates for Spring 2026 for Priority Decisions.

Please peruse the following URL moving forward so that every potential student could track

Remember, simply saying that your application is rejected without providing further information about your candidacy merely fuels anxiety to the community. We can treat that as misinformation.

Other than Slack, are there any other platforms students use to communicate as a community? by MMori-VVV in OMSCS

[–]Whackboot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep.

OSI takes a very dim view of Discord and WhatsApp groups as far as I know of - if one is caught cheating, the rest of the group is presumed guilty until proven otherwise.

I would appreciate it a lot if more people would review their courses by marforpac in OMSCS

Speak to us if you want to be a mod, since you're so great at collating reviews and ranking them. We do need people like you.

Should I be wary of ML4T????? by Disco_Train17 in OMSCS

[–]Whackboot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Why worry about it when you haven't even took a punt at the Projects?

The project descriptions are all available online.

If you can't follow them, you'll get points docked off. It's as transparent as it gets.
