What is TSI

The Texas Success Initiative (TSI) is a state-legislated program designed to improve student success in college. There are two components of the program:

  1. An assessment to diagnose students’ basic skills in reading, writing, and mathematics.
  2. Developmental or college preparatory instruction to strengthen academic skills required for college success.

Who must take an exam for TSI?

Any student seeking a degree or certificate with more than 42 hours and who does not meet exemption criteria must take an approved exam for TSI.
