How many college units to transfer to SDSU?

I'm planning to transfer to SDSU at some point. Does anyone know how many college units are required for a transfer there? Just trying to plan my course load.

For San Diego State University (SDSU), you will need to have completed at least 60 semester units (or 90 quarter units) to be considered as an upper-division transfer student. These units should include your general education requirements and specific preparation for your intended major.

Also, it's important to meet the 4 basic skills courses (Golden Four) requirement: Oral communication, Written communication, Critical thinking, and Mathematics or quantitative reasoning.

Remember that transferring to SDSU is competitively based on the major and the types of courses completed. It's best to work with your current school's advising office or a counselor to confirm that your planned course load aligns with SDSU's transfer requirements.
