Looks like the degree will not contain the word "online". From the FAQ:

> How will this degree appear on my diploma and/or transcript? The name "Online Master of Science" is an informal designation to help both Georgia Tech and prospective students distinguish the delivery method of the OMS program from our on-campus degree. The degree name in both cases is Master of Science in Computer Science.

They said the same thing on their Twitter Q/A https://twitter.com/GTOMSCS

"@GTOMSCS Is the Degree Awarded same as that for a residential program?"

"@sahuja79 Yes. The degree is the same as that for a residential program. Recommendations are not required but strongly encouraged."

Pretty black and white.
