Requires undergraduate students to file degree plan and requires institutions of higher education and certain propriety institutions to develop pathway systems to graduation.

This bill requires undergraduate students at New Jersey colleges and universities to file a formal degree plan with their institution by specific credit milestones: 60 credits for four-year schools, 30 credits for county colleges or private colleges. Institutions must also create structured "pathway systems" that set graduation benchmarks, mandate early math and English courses (within first 24 credits), and ensure remedial course students immediately enroll in credit-bearing equivalents. Students changing majors or facing academic challenges must update their degree plan, and institutions must review progress regularly, requiring academic counseling for those falling behind. The policy directly affects all degree-seeking undergraduates and institutions offering academic degrees.
