institution shall develop a degree map for each full-time student
based on the student's specific educational objective or course of
study. A full-time student's degree map must contain:
(1) an academic term by academic term sequence of course
options that will allow the full-time student to complete either:
(A) a baccalaureate degree within four (4) academic years;
or
(B) an associate degree within two (2) academic years;
in the student's intended field of study;
(2) the expected date that the student will earn a baccalaureate

IC 21-12-14-3
Degree maps; availability of courses
Sec. 3. This section applies to a student who initially enrolls in a
state educational institution after July 31, 2014. A state educational
institution shall ensure that courses necessary for the student to
comply with the student's degree map are available for the student
during the academic term in which the student is required to
complete the particular course. If a student who complies with the
student's degree map is unable to take a course required under the
student's degree map for the current academic term because:
(1) the state educational institution does not offer the course
during that particular academic term; or
(2) the student is unable to enroll in the course:
(A) because the course times at which the course is offered
conflict with other course requirements specified for the
current academic term in the student's degree map; or
(B) because the course is full;
the state educational institution shall provide the particular course to
the student at no cost during the next available academic term in
which the course is offered unless the state educational institution
provides the student with an alternate degree map that does not
require the student to take the course that semester.
As added by P.L.281-2013, SEC.30.
