Texas Success Initiative (TSI) Assessment

  • To be eligible to participate in dual credit, students are required to meet the admissions criteria of Tarrant County College (TCC), which includes completion of the TSI Assessment (reading, writing, & math). Below you will find information pertaining to this assessment and how this assessment is used by TCC. 

    All incoming college students in Texas are required to take the TSI Assessment to determine their readiness for college level work. Based on how a student performs on the TSI, they may either be enrolled in a college level course or be placed in the appropriate developmental course to improve their skills and prepare them for success in the college level course.
