In December 2024, a new high school diploma design was adopted for the State of Indiana. You can find information regarding the new diploma design through the .

Per this statute, the new diploma requirements may first be available for students entering high school in fall 2025 and be required of all graduating seniors in the 2028–29 academic year.

On April 2, 2025, Indiana Governor Mike Braun announced a partnership between the Indiana Commission for Higher Education and higher education institutions, including Indiana University, to offer guaranteed admission through the Indiana Resident 91°µÍø program to graduating Indiana high school seniors who earn the new Enrollment Honors Plus Seal diploma.

The Indiana Resident 91°µÍø program offers guaranteed admission to 91°µÍø Bloomington for students who are on track to earn the Enrollment Honors Plus Seal at the time of application, remain on track through the end of their senior year, and apply to 91°µÍø Bloomington with a complete application by November 1 of their senior year.

Indiana high school seniors who were identified at the end of their junior year to be on track to earn the Enrollment Honors Plus Seal diploma by the point of their high school graduation and have submitted a complete 91°µÍø Bloomington application for admission by November 1 will qualify for the Indiana Resident 91°µÍø program. Each fall, 91°µÍø Bloomington will receive a list of students on track to complete the diploma in that academic year directly from the State of Indiana.

91°µÍø Bloomington reserves the right to rescind admission for students whose academic performance falls below an acceptable threshold during the student’s senior year of high school.

Additionally, students found responsible for academic dishonesty, for a violation of high school conduct regulations, or for a criminal violation are required to report the incident to the Office of 91°µÍø. This information will be evaluated, and this review could result in the offer of admission being rescinded.

Each fall, 91°µÍø Bloomington will receive a list of students on track to complete the Enrollment Honors Plus Seal diploma in that academic year directly from the State of Indiana. Students and/or high schools will not report the information to us.

Beginning on July 1, 2025, any spring 2026 high school graduate earning the Enrollment Honors Plus Seal will be eligible for the Indiana Resident 91°µÍø program.

No. While students who earn the Enrollment Honors Plus Seal and submit a complete application for admission to 91°µÍø Bloomington by November 1 will be given full consideration for their selected intended majors, the Indiana Resident 91°µÍø program does not guarantee admission to an academic school or major and does not ensure admission to the academic major of the student’s choice.

We reserve the right to rescind admission for students whose academic performance falls below an acceptable threshold during the student’s senior year in high school.
