This program also will help determine what type of course or intervention will best meet your needs to help you become better prepared for college-level coursework if you are not ready.  \nIf you are an entering college student in Texas, you are required to take the TSIA—unless you are already exempt (read below)—to determine your readiness for collegelevel work. Based on how you perform, you may either be enrolled in a college-level course that matches your skill level and/or be placed in the appropriate developmental course or intervention to improve your skills and prepare you for success in college-level courses.  \nDo I Have to Take the TSI Assessment?  \nNot all incoming students need to take the TSIA. There are many ways you can be exempt. Qualifying for a TSI exemption means that you can enroll in any entry-level college course without restrictions. In other words, there are no prerequisites for enrollment in the entry-level college courses. In most cases, exemptions are subject specific, which means you may qualify for an exemption in one area such as reading but not in another area like mathematics or writing. You may be exempt if you:  \n§ Have met the minimum college readiness standard on the SAT®, ACT, or the English III/Algebra II STAAREnd-of-Course high school tests;  \n§ Have successfully completed college-level course(s);  \n§ Have enrolled in a Level-One certificate program (fewer than 43 semester credit hours);  \n§ Are not seeking a degree; or  \n§ Have been, or currently are, in the military.  \nIf you think you may be exempt, please contact an adviser at your college or university. For more information, visit our [website at](website at thecb.state.tx.us/tsi)[ thecb.state.tx.us/tsi](website at thecb.state.tx.us/tsi) (See \\#2 and click on TSI/Exemptions) .  \nHow Does the TSI Assessment Work?  \nIf you are not exempt from taking the TSIA, you will be asked to take three tests: one in mathematics, one in reading, and one in writing. Where necessary, you may be given an additional diagnostic test in a particular subject. This diagnostic test is designed to provide more detailed information regarding your academic strengths and weaknesses.  \nThese assessments include multiple-choice questions that are aligned to the Texas College and Career Readiness Standards. For the writing assessment, it’s likely that you will be asked to also write an essay.  \nHere are more details about how the TSIA works:  \n§ The assessments are computer adaptive, which means that questions increase or decrease in difficulty level depending on how you respond.  \n§ The assessments are untimed, which means there is no time limit on how long you can take to complete the assessment; however, it is important to allow yourself enough time to complete each test because the results are a key factor in determining the course or courses in which you can enroll.  \n§ In most cases, this assessment provides immediate results upon completion. When you complete the assessment, you immediately receive information on your score and your skill or proficiency levels.  \n§ You may start and stop anytime during your test session by using the “save and finish later” option, except during the essay, which must be started and completed in the same session. If you select this option, you must return and complete the remaining assessment within  \n13 calendar days.  \nStudents with Disabilities  \n§ Students with disabilities who would like to request accommodations for testing must contact the disabilities services office at the college or university to identify themselves and provide necessary documentation as requested by the institution.
