I would open the project on the laptop with the code on it, go to File > Save As... and select the option that saves all of the files with its dependencies. The reason for this rather than copying and pasting is that there are other files the project depends on not in the same spot as the rest of the code.
In the past we've used two different computers for the code and the driver station because for one, the classmate has a limited amount of HDD space, and two, in competitions, it's useful to be able to make changes to code if they are needed rather than waiting for the driver station laptop to make it back to the pit.
