History

In 2003 the Texas Legislature replaced the Texas Academic Skills Test (TASP) with the Texas Success Initiative (TSI). The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) coordinates the implementation of TSI across the state. The TSI assessment requires all Texas public institutions of higher education to determine college readiness for success in college-level academic courses. The TSI Assessment is now known as the TSIA 2.0 or TSIA2. All students entering Texas public colleges, technical schools, and universities undergo assessment using the TSIA2, unless exempt. The TSIA2 consists of three examinations – Mathematics, English Language Arts and Reading (ELAR), and Essay. Students are placed into appropriate coursework based on their results from the TSIA2.
