If you're sold on Data Science, I'd check out the align program by Northeastern. If you're open to Computer Science, also check out their Align CS and Colorado School of Mines bridge program.

Correct. Social sciences.

I'm in the same boat!

Additionally, I've found an MSBA to be a good degree program if you're not from an engineering background. You'll learn the hard skills, and won't need to take all the pre-req classes for calc 3, data structures, linear algebra etc. Seems like a better program for what I want to use it form
