As the title says, I don’t have a GPA to be admitted into top business school like an Ivy League. I have some background in data analysis and data visualization, although I want to strengthen my profile with a masters degree in data science and machine learning.

Curious to hear if anybody has any insight on what graduate programs are better to apply to with a GPA on the lower side. For instance, Northwestern’s masters in Data Science and Machine Learning admits a class of only 55 students, so that is very selective. I’d likely be better off applying to a school with a higher admission percentage.

If you know of any Masters in Data Science & Machine Learning programs, I’d greatly appreciate hearing about your experience or insights. I’ve done a fair amount of research on what’s out there and now I’d like to hear from others.

I am open to all programs in-person or online, full-time or part-time, FEMBAs, etc.

Thank you!
