I saw that a lot of my prior credits from my undergraduate and graduate studies may meet the required courses for a bachelor's in political science from TESU.
TESU does. Though it depends on how it aligns. You need at least 24 new credits post the latest degree. You also need 15 credit for residency if you are not paying the residency waiver fee. Generally gen eds and electives are waived if the prior degree was a bachelors.

So, do I need 24 credits beyond my latest graduate degree or 24 new credits beyond bachelor's degree?
I ask this because I got a bachelors degree from an RA college so I was assuming you can transfer up to 114 credits in?

Last degree (at any level); they want them 'new'. And more recently they have not been taking graduate level credits as bachelor UL substitution as they once used to (I speak from personal experience), so I would not assume they will. When this 30 RA rule went into effect many things they used to allow became a case by case basis - or I should say, a course by course basis. From what I have experienced, if the graduate credits had been for a first bachelor, an appeal might have worked - but not in the case of a 2nd bachelor (and this wasn't specific to my first being from TESU).
If you apply, please do let us know how it works out.

The credits from your EVMS Doctor of Health Science can be used to satisfy the 24 new credits (if applicable). Other completed degrees (such as those that were completed between 2015 to 2021) are not eligible for those 24 new hours. It is important that you graduate from TESU before EVMS
