I'm pretty sure this woman doesn't know what she's talking about based on other responses she gave to other questions, but wanted to check here before I push further on this issue.
Whoever answered this ticket was obviously confused by what you were asking. Regardless, this request would best be handled by a 30min advising appointment. They have flexible hours, you could even set it up over your lunch break.
(The appts are only allotted 30 mins, if you think you need more time, find an available 1hr block and set up two appts with the same advisor to cover the hour.) This way you could explain your request(s) thoroughly and at the same time, if you wanted, add any courses/exams you are currently taking or will take to your academic evaluation as planned credit (PL).
Remember, not all advisors are cut from the same cloth. Most importantly, it takes time to acclimate yourself to academic lingo, school policy and procedures.

Federal Emergency Management Agency. There are course that are free that can count toward college credit, TESC no longer accepts them, ( I got grandfathered in) but COSC and Excelsior still do. I can never remember which one is which but, one of them will take the credits raw from the FEMA transcript while the other requires them to be transcribed by Frederick Community College at $79 per credit hour.
