I'm sure it varies from school to school, so you'd need to check with GSU to be sure.
However, I was under the impression that many (or most) schools hold on to "unknown" transcripts for up to 6 months to compensate for any potential timing issues relating to the matriculation of new/transferring students at the school. I'm pretty sure Excelsior and COSC do that anyway. And for both of them you can also pay them to bank your credits if you don't elect to enroll right away (or at all.)
I'm doing the same thing at COSC... I've applied and been accepted, but haven't enrolled yet. I will be doing so however, since there are a few classes that I need to take directly through the school. Once I take those classes I'll probably go inactive though and just accumulate CLEP/DSST credits until graduation time next year.
Worst case, if they don't take them, you can always just have them all re-sent when you're ready for $20 (or $30 or whatever that transcript fee is.)

Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23
