Help us monitor progress
Many of you are already adding a college waiver code to your incoming student accounts. To help us evaluate the effectiveness of our program, we ask that you please add a specific waiver code for Texas College Bridge students. By differentiating this code, you will be able to report comparative data following the first semester and help us establish an evidence base of program outcomes.
