			 a student to transfer from a community college to a public university listed in
			 ORS 352.002 without the loss of

			 that the student has successfully completed at a community college, provided
			 that the grade in each course that is transferred meets the degree requirements
			 established by the CAP;
(c) Contain
			 provisions that identify the optimal number of academic credits, including
			 credits in the major course of study, that the student should have when the
			 student transfers from a community college to a public university listed in ORS

			 of study at the public university; and

			 public university; and
(B) Be able
			 to receive a bachelor's degree in the major course of study by completing the
			 additional academic credits identified in the CAP after transferring, based on
