  We present estimates from the covariant spectator quark model for the
electromagnetic transition form factors for the resonances
$N(1440)\frac{1}{2}^+$, $N(1535)\frac{1}{2}^-$, $N(1520)\frac{3}{2}^-$ and
$\Delta(1232)\frac{3}{2}^+$, at intermediate and large square momentum transfer
($Q^2$). The calculations associated to the $N(1440)\frac{1}{2}^+$,
$N(1535)\frac{1}{2}^-$ and $N(1520)\frac{3}{2}^-$ states are based exclusively
on the parametrizations derived for the nucleon. In the case of the
$\Delta(1232)\frac{3}{2}^+$ (isospin 3/2), we use lattice QCD data to estimate
the radial structure, and take into account the well known effects associated
with the pion cloud dressing of the baryons. Our estimates are based mainly on
the valence quark degrees of freedom and are in good agreement with the data
for $Q^2 > 2$ GeV$^2$, with a few exceptions. The present predictions can be
tested in a near future for large $Q^2$ at the Jefferson Lab -- 12 GeV upgrade.
