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

S 3622 requires undergraduate students at New Jersey colleges to file a degree plan with their institution by specific credit milestones: 60 credits for four-year schools (or during the second semester for transfer students with 45+ credits), and 30 credits for community colleges or proprietary institutions. It mandates colleges to develop structured "pathway systems" that set graduation progress benchmarks for each major, require first-time students to take credit-bearing math and English courses within their first 24 credits, and ensure students in remedial courses enroll in the corresponding credit-bearing course immediately after. Institutions must also notify students changing majors to update their degree plan and provide academic advising for students falling behind on progress benchmarks. The degree plan must be created with an academic advisor and follow the institution's established pathway to graduation.
