Will you consider a business administration with CIS degree at TESU? (CIS can be tested out) Keep in mind that employers know the difference between a MIS/CIS grad and a CS grad. What are you going to do with the degree?
As far as tests for the CS at TESU, there are 2 MIS tests that cover 6 credits of upper level (MIS DSST and CSU-Global System Analysis and Design). There are a ton of options for lower level CS programming exams if you already know Java or C++. But if you can pass those exams, you might be able to PLA those courses and a lot more. Be aware that applied computer stuff like cybersecurity, cloud computing, and TCP/IP networking exams or classes won't work (but will work for BSBA in CIS).
That leaves you with 3 upper level CS courses plus one capstone course you have to take. On the lower level credits, you are missing a math course (either linear algebra or discrete math) and a CS data structures course. The linear algebra counts as upper level in CS as long as you don't take the class at a community college.
I'm not sure what you mean by disqualified. But if you have any D grades lying around, they will count as long as it's not in the major (area of study) or for English comp.
The Calc 1 with the C- might be an issue at TESU because officially you need a C or better in the area of study. You can CLEP the calculus if a retake is needed.
