You should be able to find these forms online at the Fresno City College website under the "Counseling" section, then clicking on the "Transfer Center" link. Typically, they are updated each academic year. Including the major and your target university in your search should narrow down the options and help you find the right transfer sheet.

Finally, it’s crucial to schedule an appointment with your academic advisor or a counselor to review your plan. These trained professionals can verify your choices and help answer any lingering questions you might have. Plus, they are often aware of any changes or updates to transfer requirements that might not yet be reflected in the transfer sheets. They can also guide you on General Education requirements and assist you with transfer applications when the time comes.

Remember, transfer sheets are an excellent start, but meeting with an advisor will ensure that you stay on track and meet all your transfer objectives. Best of luck!
