I think COSC has the simplest format for getting an AA, except they require a cornerstone course.
TESC, now uses the LEAP system and the courses have to be broken down into certain categories. I actually like it because it gives the degree a purpose besides a collection of credits, but it makes it just slightly more difficult.
Here is the map TESC provides. I'll try and do a quick map using the credits you have in a 2nd post. I have one question though. TESC now has a per credit plan. If your student takes 12 credits with TESC, you don't have to pay the huge enrollment fee. These 12 credits can be fulfilled with TECEPs, which at around $100 each can save a lot of money. Does your student plan on doing the traditional enrollment fee or the per credit plan?

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
