Hey MrBossmanJr,
Don't get too much caught up in armstrongsubero rhetoric, he doesn't really know what he is talking about and likes to diminish a whole profession from his little personal view lens of doing websites in his basement and shout CS all the way to his kitchen.
What he is right about tho, is that you don't need a master because software is hot right now. So a master will do, of course, the BACS might do, that will make it a bit harder because you will lack some coding fundamentals, doing a couple of personal projects to show your skills could help, but even then, if you don't know the market, getting focussed might be an issue.
I would add another option, finish the BACS and then do a nanodegree (udacity) in one of the software fields that interest you. That will give you applicable skills, and with the BACS I think it should be enough to land you an intern/junior job at a good firm.
