STUDENT CARE AND ADVOCACY

We believe in promoting students’ overall well-being and focus on issues around economic stability, housing, transportation, food access and health care.
STUDENT TRANSITIONS AND PERSISTENCE
The newly formed Student Transitions and Persistence office is comprised of New Student Orientation and the PERSiST academic coaching program. We help students navigate the many transitions and challenges they may encounter during their college experience. Our devoted team offers support to ease students’ onboarding process, normalize help-seeking behavior and foster a sense of belonging. Closing equity gaps through service to marginalized or minoritized groups is also at the heart of our office’s work. For more information, please contact us at persist@pstcc.edu.

The Testing Center provides in-house and standardized testing (CLEP, DSST, Certiport, HESI, HiSET, etc.) for Pellissippi State students and the community as needed. Hours vary by campus. We do not offer exams during the last 30 minutes of operation each day.
For Pellissippi State course exams, instructors send a Test Authorization form to the Testing Center with all required information. For standardized exams or correspondence exams, examinees must make a test appointment at www.Registerblast.com/pstcc and pay the proctor fee.
