Also listed in this agreement

ASSIST lists these Foothill College courses under this major without naming a single CSU Northridge 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.

Verify this list on ASSIST.org before you register: choose Foothill College as your sending institution, CSU Northridge as the receiving institution, and Biology as the major. ASSIST is the only official source, and agreements change between catalog years.

ASSIST is the official source for CSU articulation, but it tells you which courses count, not when they run or who teaches them. The planner puts both together and warns you about time conflicts.
