    What is the Texas Success Initiative (TSI) Assessment?

    The TSI Assessment is a computer-adaptive test measuring skills in Reading, Sentence Skills, Essay Writing, and Mathematics.  Any student who is attempting to enroll in college-level coursework at a community college who is not exempt from the testing requirements should take the TSI.  Also, those students who plan on enrolling in our dual-credit program should take this test. Still have questions about the TSI, check out the resources below!

    Why: TSI is a state assessment required to take college-level coursework.  Students particularly interested in taking academic college courses with ACC while in high school through the Dual Credit program are required to take this exam prior to course selection.  Students testing for the first time must take the entire exam (all 3 parts). Your score will determine the courses you are eligible to take.  Students should visit with the ACC Advisor after testing to review their results.
