Important Pilot URL Details
The Texas College Bridge TSI Test Prep pilot uses custom registration links to allow students to self-register for the program. Any student who has one of your links will be able to register.
| Teachers should contact their local ISD or school administrator for these URLs. They are not available in a teacher's TCB admin interface. |
The primary coordinator(s) or pilot coordinator will be sent your district's registration links via email.
IMPORTANT: The links we will be sharing will enroll all students in math and English. If you want to create links to register students for only one subject, you can follow the steps below to generate those registration links, or ask the TCB team for guidance.
Anyone with an ISD Administrator or School Administrator account can also access the district URLs via the EdReady interface using the instructions below. You need to provide these URLs to the teachers in your district.
