		<description>The program is a joint program between UPS and ENAC, gotta love those acronyms. I know about the VAE program but it can take longer than 6 months for the process.

I can&#039;t get into the program which is a Masters 2 program without Java programming and other Object Oriented experience. I am looking at M1 programs that I could get into and in those programs I&#039;d learn the OO stuff.

I&#039;m willing to be in school again for 2 years, but not more.

Anyway, it is a very interesting sounding program and the advisor I met with was encouraging, although he freely admitted I was a special case. I&#039;ve been telling my friends this for years and they don&#039;t believe me.</description>

		<description>A belated Happy Birthday!

Which school is the UI program taught at?  You should check out the &quot;VAE&quot; program -- Validation of your experience (usually professional experience) with academic credit for it!  This might help you get around the pre-requisite hurdles.</description>
