EdReady Essay Functionality available in January 2023

We are excited to announce the availability of new EdReady functionality—coming in January 2023—that will make Texas College Bridge essay writing, submission, review, and grading easier.

The integrated essay functionality was developed based on your feedback and is intended to encourage the successful completion of the essay assignment, resulting in a greater number of Texas College Bridge students earning their English Certificates of Completion.
