What exactly would bother you about being asked tons of questions about TESU? Thomas Edison State University is a regionally accredited state university that you have earned potentially three degrees from. Like MANY RA schools, TESU offers online degree programs and you earned the credits necessary to complete three of those programs.
I am sure you worked hard to earn those degrees and this is an accomplishment you should be proud of imo. Most likely you earned the LL credits that are applied to your Associate level degrees as the foundation to prepare you for the course of study in the UL course credits that will lead to your Bachelor level degree. In my experience, earning the degrees and documenting you were able to finish something you started is what most employers will be concerned with, no matter what order you did them in or what your graduation date for each of those programs ends up being.
As for how you could list them on your CV the following could probably work fine:
Thomas Edison State University, Trenton, NJ. Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science, *GPA/Date optional
Relevant Courses: highlight any courses you completed that may be relevant to the job you are applying to. For example if they are looking for someone with X programming language and you completed courses in those specific languages or X certifications and those certifications were part of your degree program you could optionally list them here in order to highlight them.
As to the associates, I'm not 100% sure if these would be considered a double major by TESU or two separate degrees. If they are, you could easily list them something like this after your BACS:
Thomas Edison State University, Trenton, NJ. Double Major:
Associate in Science in Natural Science and Mathematics, Computer Science, *GPA/Date optional
Associate in Science in Natural Science and Mathematics, Mathematics, *GPA/Date optional
or if not considered a double major you could list them both separately and after your BACS like this:
Thomas Edison State University, Trenton, NJ
Associate in Science in Natural Science and Mathematics, Computer Science, *GPA/Date optional
Associate in Science in Natural Science and Mathematics, Mathematics, *GPA/Date optional
The most advanced degree should always be listed first on your resume. Whether or not you choose to include all three programs on your CV is up to you. You are not required to list any degree on your resume, so what works for you is what I would say works best.
*As a new grad its not uncommon to list either but neither is required and once you are a few years past graduation its typically less common to see applicants list graduation dates on their resume.
