TEXAS SUCCESS INITIATIVE (TSI)

*requirement by the State of Texas

The Texas Success Initiative (TSI) is a state requirement that every student entering a public college or university must complete an assessment to enhance their likelihood of college success.

As a transfer student, you may be exempt from completing this assessment by:

Earning an Associate’s degree from a regionally accredited institution

Passing college level math and English language courses with a D or better

SAT and/or ACT performance

Completing Texas College Bridge Course

You will receive an email from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions if you need to complete your TSI Assessment. Your results are not going to prevent you from attending Tarleton. They will be used by your academic advisor when it is time to register for classes to ensure you are enrolled in classes that will set you up for success.

IF YOU HAVE ALREADY TESTED, please complete the TSI Release Form at choose.tarleton.edu/tsi-assessment. The form is required in order for Tarleton to download your official scores.
