So after looking at the NFA courses listed on the USFA NFA Course Catalogs, it appears there are now only 2 courses that are ACE-recommended and therefore are able to be transferred into TESC for credit.
They are:
Community Safety Educators Self Study Q0118
Fire Service Supervision: Self Study Q0318
The prior ones listed in previous postings were Q534 and Hydraulics Q137. This is no longer the case as of 11/2013.
So just FYI for anybody trying to get free elective credits for free/cheap - just know you can only take these 2 now.
Still better than nothing though.
After these 2 courses, I still need to get 2 more free electives. Anybody have any idea where I can get cheap/free easy free elective college credit?
If you mention TEEX, can I get more info on what that is and how it works and possibly the link to it? Thanks!

Just checked with ACE - you are correct - thank you! Sorry for the misinformation - I just saw on the NFA website that it said Q137 was not allowable for any college credit as of 11/2013 - but if ACE says it's cool, THAT's what matters!  Thanks futuremrsmlb!
