Let's be sure we are talking about the same thing. You said AAS, is that exactly what you mean? Typically, the AA and AS are general education only 2-year degrees. Career degrees are AAS degrees and contain only about 15 gen eds.
So, contrary to what seems to make sense, an AAS (also called an AOS) can not usually be knocked out quickly. In fact, the AAS is likely going to take a full 2 years. Your friend CAN knock out an AA at TESC quickly using CLEP/DSST exclusively.
If you'd share the name or link of the program he's looking at it might be more helpful.
