Texas College Bridge Exemption

The TSI Hold is a hold that delays registration for the upcoming semester.

If a student has not either passed the TSI Assessment or successfully completed the co-requisite courses then this hold will remain on your account for every semester that these actions are not completed.

All New Students with a TSI hold, if you have already submitted All TSI Scores and/or Exemptions, next you will register for New Student Orientation. 

  • Incoming Freshmen: Your advisor will temporarily lift your TSI hold & register you for classes for the first semester only. 
  • Incoming Transfer or Readmit: At orientation, you will have the opportunity to connect with your *Advisor regarding your TSI hold to determine the appropriate college and co-requisite course(s) you need for registration.

All Current Students with a TSI hold, you must contact your assigned advisor in order to have the TSI hold temporarily lifted for registration purposes only. To determine the appropriate college and co-requisite course(s) you need for registration based on your major, please contact your assigned *Academic Advisor.

*Academic Advisor contact information can be found on the Academic Advising Services ‘Meet Our Advisors webpage.

Previous TSI Results

If you have already taken the TSI assessment at another Texas institution, you need to complete the Cross Institutional Reporting Form so the TSI office can retrieve the scores from the other institution’s Accuplacer system.

If a student wants to view all test scores (TSIA, ACT, SAT, GED, etc.) that the university has input in the system, please follow these steps:
  1. Sign in to the PV student portal
  2. Click on “Click here for New PantherTracks For Students”
  3. Select “Student Profile”
  4. Select “Prior Education” to view all scores on file
If a student wants to obtain a copy of their TSIA results, follow this GUIDE to access your TSIA scores through the ACCUPLACER student portal.
 
If a student is transferring to another institution, they should reach out to the Testing or Assessment center at the new institution to request their TSI scores through Cross Institutional Reporting in Accuplacer.
If a student took the TSIA at a different institution, they should contact the Testing or Assessment center at the previous institution to find out how to obtain a physical copy of their scores.
