Already Taken the TSI?

If you have already taken the TSI Assessment, you do NOT have to take it again.
However, you are able to re-test if you would like to improve your score.  


If you tested at Lamar University, or remotely (with a voucher number from Lamar University) we will automatically receive your scores electronically.  Allow us 24 hours after you complete the exam to process your scores.  

If you tested at a testing center other than on the Lamar University campus, choose to allow LU to retrieve your TSI assessment scores. You will need to know your LEA username and password to access the form. Your LEA information is the same as what you use to login in to your LU email. If you need help with your LEA Account, you can contact the Service Desk at 409-880-2222. Allow us 48 hours after you submit the form to process your scores.
