Then I also have BA CS and BSBA CIS.
Yeah I sent them a carefully worded email that they should kindly let me do it.

If you don't have an associates, the other work around is to add the ASNSM Computer Science and add the ASNSM Math into your program list and skip the form altogether...
In order to add a program to your degree list, you just email them, please add ABC degree into my degree plan list and that's it... remember the MAX you can have is two associates and two bachelors, nothing more...
Dang, you're fast, you responded to me before I finished adding an update to my previous post! haha, see above

Ya, I never filled out any forms.
I emailed academic advising. Put in the subject your primary degree, so it goes to the right person.
In the body, ask to add the Math Associates and include your name and student ID number.
They should get back to you within 24 hours.

Yeah it's academic advising that is giving me the issues

Yeah, This is how I figured it was supposed to work, but they haven't responded yet to my reply.

Yeah, you'll just have to wait until the follow up on Monday or Tuesday...

So they followed up with me and they added both degree plans to my program list.
They also said I don't need any Gen Eds because of my prior bachelors degree.
5 more math credits would do get me the math minor
And the College mathamtics CLEP would get me 6...
I got a 47 on the College Alegbra CLEP so I feel like I should be able to stumble through this class with the Instacert flash cards

CLEP College math hmm. I'm 6 credits away from a math associate's degree. I may as well just take a shot at the college math CLEP exam.
I'm going to use Peterson's Master the CLEP guide. It's only like 50 pages to read and comes with a practice test. PM if you need help getting this or have a better suggestion. Also, I'll do the Modern States & maybe find a Quizlet.
MY Associates Math Plan:
RA College Algebra (came in MAT-121 for more than 3 credits)
Sophia stats
CMS Learn
Calculus
Discrete Math
CLEP College Math (6cr)
Graduation instructions are here:
https://www.tesu.edu/current-students/graduation-information
I emailed registrar@tesu.edu, and from what I understand, you have until Feb 1st to get all courses completed and then added to your degree. Considering you have lag when CLEP sends scores and then it's added to your degree, maybe you have until Jan 7th to take the CLEP done, or you be cutting it close.
