The additional 24 credits can be in any subject and do include the capstone.
It shouldn’t take very much work to earn a bachelor’s degree in math. I would send your transcripts to TESU and have them evaluated.
Are the GE requirements still waived if I also attempt an Associates along with the Bachelors?
The requirements are:
Earning an Associate Degree after earning a Baccalaureate, advanced, or professional Degree
Students who have earned a baccalaureate, advanced or professional degree from TESU or an accredited institution recognized under the Thomas Edison State University Transfer Credit Policy and who then apply for an associate degree must:
- Complete a minimum of 12 credits in the option, or in the general education electives if there is not an option, including the required Capstone, if applicable. These credits must be earned after the date the most recent degree, regardless of academic level, was conferred.
- These credits must be earned after the date the most recent degree, regardless of academic level, was conferred.

Since you already have a degree, TESU will not make you repeat your General Education requirements. Instead, they require you to earn 12 new credits to validate the new degree.
Those 12 new credits for AS Math can be from Mathematics requirements or electives.
