Associate of Applied Science are typically terminal degrees. Meaning you could gain employment from them without further education. Because of this, they are filled with occupational/vocational/technical type courses which generally don't transfer well. This is true even at the big 3. Like TESU for example, except for the BS tech studies or BA professional studies degrees, most of the time these types of courses would just be free electives in TESU programs.
A general AA or AS is mostly gen eds and liberal arts courses which makes it more transfer-friendly.
For the most part, block transfers don't apply to AAS degrees unless is a vocational program.
Here is an option that might work for you: http://www.utoledo.edu/online-degree-pro...ogram.html
It is a 2+2 program which requires an AAS to even pursue the degree. The school accepts ACE and NCCRS credits as well as CLEP and DSST and only requires 30 credits in residence. So this might be the closest thing you'd get to a block transfer of an AAS degree.
WGU did provide me with a block transfer for my A.A.S from PierPont. It depends on WGU's program if they award the block transfer.
