After checking, brokerage cd rates as well as treasuries, I decided to pursue this with Andrews after doing a chat online. They told me that if I open the base savings account first, afterwords, I will be able to do an ACH transfer of 100K into the base savings account, and then use that to open the 5% CD. They also clarified that if an ACH transfer was set up to withdraw money via ACH from another bank, then they do not have a limit of how much can go out via ACH. So I opened the base savings with five dollars, and hopefully won't have any issues.
Keep in mind that treasuries are approximately 4.6% right now for six months. If you are in a state where your income is taxable and have to file a state tax return, you should take that into account on whether to do a CD or treasury, as treasuries are only federally taxable.
Edit: Several hours later and my application for Andrews has still not been approved. Don't waste your time.

1. Cut a cashier check of amount you want and send it to them.
2. Write a check ($5k a day limit) and deposit them checks In AFCU via mobile deposit.
With that said… if I don't know them, I don't trust them … too many ways to scam us out of our $$$
I encourage you all to look into liquid money market funds in your brokerage accounts…..

Andrews FCU said I can go to a share branch to close out the CD when it matures.
the offer has now been extended to end of 2022.
