ASSIST lists these Foothill College courses under this major without naming a single CSU Monterey Bay 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.
PSE 20Verify this list on ASSIST.org before you register: choose Foothill College as your sending institution, CSU Monterey Bay as the receiving institution, and Liberal Studies as the major. ASSIST is the only official source, and agreements change between catalog years.
