What have you planned for after that? More certs or going for a Masters, or are you just using this Bachelors for a higher paying job?
There's other schools that will accept those, such as COSC, Excelsior and WGU. What you can do is enter in all your learned info into a spreadsheet.

And enter the schools requirements for all 3-4 schools as a sample plan and see which one comes closer for you. This is to gauge what you need.
Apply to which one you prefer most and see who gives you the most credits. But you should focus on free elective/general education first.
As that will apply to all the schools you apply to, then the AOS is what separates them apart as the requirements are different for each one.

Just wondering why you didn't take A+? Since you have Net+/Security+, if you have A+, that will give you elective credit for one of the MS Certs.
Furthermore, since you're into Security, you may want to look into BS Cybersecurity at either COSC and Excelsior, or WGU.
As additional upper level college credit, you can go for the CEH as well and be a Certified Ethical Hacker, and get 3-4 credits UL.

PS Options: If you are adamant in enrolling at TESU, your option is to take the TECEP for Network Technology at $114
There's the PLA option of getting 12 credits for $379, this can be in IT or anything else you need credits in by portfolio.
Again, create that spreadsheet and attach it to this thread for members to critique.
