You can ask them to add the BACS right now and that will lock in the requirements, though not the equivalencies they give transferred courses.
As far at the ASNSM-CS vs a cert... Associate's degrees can be gotten with all LL courses, while most certs require some UL courses. I would value the cert more, generally. If you look at the TESU CS cert, where you only need one more course for the ASNSM-CS, you would have to do most of the BACS AOS to earn the cert.

You can also ask them to plan in the courses/tests you intend to take, and that might help if they try to give you guff over equivalencies later.

2 of them said they couldn't until after my graduation was confirmed. Which may happen in just 1 more month.

I no longer plan to delay my degree for the ASNSM-CS.
