Do AAS degree courses transfer into TESU?

My son is considering taking classes in a Broadcasting Production Technology program at our local comm college.  If he wanted to later pursue the BA in Communications at TESU could these courses work towards that degree?  The courses have a prefix of BPT and have course titles like: Introduction to Broadcasting, Broadcast Law & Ethics, Broadcast Speech I and II, Broadcast Writing, Broadcast Sales, etc.

Thanks

technically, the *degree* doesn't transfer in, rather TESU will evaluate each of your credits individually. Also, unless you're going to enroll right now, degree planning this far in advance is risky. If the AAS is important for your career, get the AAS. Worry about how to work it into a bachelor's later. If the BA is the most important, then go that direction.
The average AAS is going to have more credits than an AA/AS, so depending on how it all shakes out, you may end up with some unused 100/200 level credit. If you want that degree for your career, then go for it. (PS I have a son in a similar situation who is earning an AAS via our community college in his field, separately he'll get a bachelor's at one of the big 3, but the bachelor's checks the box where his AAS gives him the skills- so they serve different purposes)
