This paper introduces a methodology for examining finite-approximate controllability in Hilbert spaces for linear/semilinear <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>ν</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>-Caputo fractional evolution equations. A novel criterion for achieving finite-approximate controllability in linear <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>ν</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>-Caputo fractional evolution equations is established, utilizing resolvent-like operators. Additionally, we identify a control strategy that not only satisfies the approximative controllability property but also ensures exact finite-dimensional controllability. Leveraging the approximative controllability of the corresponding linear <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>ν</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>-Caputo fractional evolution system, we establish sufficient conditions for achieving finite-approximative controllability in the semilinear <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>ν</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>-Caputo fractional evolution equation. These findings extend and build upon recent advancements in this field. The paper also explores applications to <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>ν</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>-Caputo fractional heat equations.
