Sec. 5. (a) Except as provided in subsection (b), an eligible student may enroll in course access program courses offered by a course provider that is authorized by the department under this chapter.
(b) A school corporation may disapprove an eligible student's enrollment in a course access program only for the following reasons:
(1) The course provided by the course provider is not in furtherance of the eligible student's graduation or certificate requirements.
(2) The eligible student's enrollment in the course access program course would exceed the requirements for a normal full course load at the school corporation.
(3) The course access program course is logistically infeasible.
However, a school corporation may not deny enrollment of an eligible student under subdivision (3) if the eligible student agrees to pay the cost of tuition for the applicable course access program course.
(c) If a school corporation denies a student's enrollment in a course access program course under subsection (b), the school corporation shall notify the student's parent or emancipated eligible student of the parent's or student's right to appeal the school corporation's decision to the department. The parent of an eligible student or an emancipated eligible student may appeal the decision of the school corporation to the department in a manner prescribed by the department. The department shall review the school corporation's denial under subsection (b) and provide a final enrollment decision within seven (7) calendar days of receipt of the appeal.
