You then will have to satisfy the business portion with which is 36 credits. Some of which you may have already taken to complete the first degree. To be clear , is there a max credit overlap as long as 24 are completed after conferral? For example like I stated above the cs portion should be satisfied. Along with possibly some business courses used in the first degree. Also can all the remaining credit/course requirements for the 2nd degree be taken through alternative sources other than the business capstone ? Or is there a restriction

There's key wording here. 24 credits after completion of the first bachelors. If it hasn't been conferred, then it isn't completed. There's a decent number of people on this board pursuing 2, even 3 concurrent degrees. I am one of that number. When I emailed TESU they clarified the 24 credits are to be earned 6 months after graduation with the first degree. However, should I accumulate enough credits for both degrees, then that's fine and would only have to pay a single graduation fee and they would be conferred at the same time. It's definitely possible and fairly common on this board.

Got post happy, forgot to answer the second part.

>>To be clear , is there a max credit overlap as long as 24 are completed after conferral? 
 
I believe you can't re-take the same courses again. That's what I was told by TESU Academic Advising. I believe there is also a dwell time on when you can start those credits. I believe it is 6 months after conferral.

>>Also can all the remaining credit/course requirements for the 2nd degree be taken through alternative sources other than the business capstone ?

TESU has a 90 CR limit on Alternative Sources that kicks in March 1st. After that, 30 credits will need to be Regionally Accredited. Capstone and Cornerstone would be from TESU, so that's 6, so you'd need 24 RA credits. Assuming you have those, I also believe that if you're in different courses that have different Capstones, you need to take both. The capstone has to be retaken if you've already had a degree conferred.  I don't remember this being policy, but I looked in the Course Catalog and found this:

"Graduates of TESU who are returning for a second degree should note that the Capstone courses LIB-495: Liberal Arts Capstone (for the TESU BA degrees) and APS-401: Current Trends and Applications (for certain BS applied sciences degrees) are degree-specific and therefore will have to be retaken and will count toward the required NEW credit."

Long and short of it, it's likely easier, cheaper and more efficient to satisfy both degrees at the same time.
In progress:
TESU BSBA-CIS (120/120) [Completed, delayed conferral]
TESU BA-COS (117/120)
TESU ASNSM Math (59/61) 
Remaining:
SDC - Systems Analysis, Data Structures, Comp Architecture, Discrete Math, Business Communication
SL Going to try Sophia- Calculus 1
MAT-105 Applied Liberal Arts Mathematics TECEP
CSM Learn
TESU - Cornerstone, Capstone
