The Texas Success Initiative (TSI) is mandated by Texas law to ensure that students enrolled in Texas public colleges are ready for college-level coursework in the areas of mathematics, reading, and writing.
If you're not ready, you must take the TSI Assessment to help determine the courses that will help get you prepared.
Not all incoming students need to take the TSI Assessment. An exemption means that you can enroll in any entry-level college course without restrictions.
