You need a new I-20 from the school that you'll be transferring to, and the int'l. student advisor at that school needs to "process" it (the person needs to add your I-94 number to it & indicate that the I-20 is issued for your transfer to their school).

The advisor will typically require a letter or form from your current school indicating that you're currently "in status" (basically that you've been attending there full-time and haven't to their knowlege worked illegally).

You don't need a new I-94 card or new visa simply because of the transfer.

Best wishes.
