Each school has its own requirements on transfer credit, but for a degree at TESU they are specific that additional credits earned towards a second degree must be earned after the conferral date of the most recent degree. From what I understand, they can be sticklers about this policy.
If you want to earn a second degree from TESU, you may have to live with it.
I know how you feel. I finished the last of my school work for my degree around the first or second week of January, but since my degree won't be conferred until March 15th, I have been sitting on my hands for the last two months waiting. I feel like I'm being unproductive and wasting my time. I cannot work on any undergrad courses towards a second bachelor's degree (if I wanted one) nor can I start on my planned master's program since the BSBA degree conferral is not complete. In addition, I recently discovered that I may end up having to wait until May 1st to start my master's degree because my BSBA is being conferred too late in the month meet the deadline for an April 1st start date, which throws my schedule off by another month. At least I can work on undergrad courses in the interim if I want to go back for a CS degree at some point.

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