I am Non- CSE graduate from IIT ROORKEE and working as data scientist with about 2.5 years of experience.

Should I pursue masters in data science as I have no formal degree just experience?
If yes, then from which of the following options:
1. Full time / part time Indian universities like IITs , IIITs
2. Online masters from top US universities like Georgia tech, CMU etc - cost around 8-20 lakhs
3. Offline masters in US - costs 50+ lakhs
4. Upgrad- 1 lakh or any other
