Ask HN: Is it possible to get PhD without completing bachelors
7 by throwaway256256 | 1 comments on Hacker News.
Hello! I have been an employed software engineer for a bit more than 8 years, after dropping out of a traditional bachelors degree program in 2012, due to financial and personal reasons. I have been the “theory guy” in every job I’ve had in the last 6 years, and I would really like to be able to learn more theoretical math-and-computer-science-related subjects, since I am more financially stable and seeing a therapist regularly. I don’t have much interest in completing my gen-Ed’s, but I genuinely would like to learn more theoretical math/compsci, and I can only get so far buying used textbooks on eBay. Is it possible to get a graduate degree without a bachelors (in the US)? If anyone here has done that, can you give any advice on how?
