I do have quite a few credits that could be incorporated into something more than just a simple AA but was looking at certificates rather than associate, but talking to advisor once we reach more than 60 credits they kinda discourage certificate. Although there is no limit on how many but it needs to 'fit' with type of Bachelors degree one is pursuing.
Also because my program is a BA, not sure if associate can be in science?
Yes - on a limited preset basis. For example the ASNSM is available in Computer Science, Mathematics, Biology...

I recently got accepted but I am not sure if it is a real computer science degree or if it is a science and math degree with a little sprinkle of computer science in there. I am looking for a legit computer science degree. When I graduate would I be able to legit say that I graduated with a computer science degree. I think the ASNSM is throwing me off.

It would be respected as much as most any other school's associate in computer science. If you want bachelor level respect, that would require a bachelor in CS. If you're adding it to another program to show some competency in an area (CS) then it helps. In my case I have a BSBA, I think of it showing I had a "minor" in CS (my professional experience makes it clear my skills are more 'major' level - but I was not going to opt for two capstones when I can use that time/money towards a master degree). What is your objective?
Amberton - MSHRB
TESU - ASNSM/BSBA
TESU - ASNSM/BSBA
