ASSIST lists these Foothill College courses under this major without naming a single San José State University course they map to — usually because they sit inside a “choose from the following” group. They are part of the agreement, so treat them as in scope and check the exact grouping on ASSIST.
CHEM 12AL + CHEM 12CL + CHEM 12B + CHEM 12BL + CHEM 12A + CHEM 12CVerify this list on ASSIST.org before you register: choose Foothill College as your sending institution, San José State University as the receiving institution, and Biological Sciences as the major. ASSIST is the only official source, and agreements change between catalog years.
