Just know that you can't transfer those out to TESU like you implied in your original post.

Correct. That was the first part of what I was asking - which would be laundering - but as I was writing it occurred to me that the likely hood of that may not be feasible and alluded to going to PF to fill in the gaps with ACE credits and ultimately transfer to TESU. I'm still not sure they will even take ACE credits from PF. It may be best to just start over from scratch. Not in love with that idea as my job is pretty exhausting. No pain no gain.

Yes, they will take ACE credits from PF.  Your best bet is to always check ACE before taking courses, as PF has both ACE-approved courses, and ones that aren't.

Also, I'm still not seeing how a PF AA will help you ultimately get the TESU BA.  If only some of the credits can be used, it doesn't make a ton of sense to me.

I would instead consider a school that will take your NA credits.
