Texas+Success+Initiative+(TSI)

====The purpose of the Texas Success Initiative (TSI), mandated by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board , is to grant institutions of higher education the flexibility and responsibility to improve individualized programs and ensure the success of students in higher education. ====

====All new-to-college students are required to take a placement test to determine if developmental courses are needed in reading, writing or mathematics.====

All students must meet the following requirements before enrolling in restricted courses.
====The [|TSI Assessment] is the state-approved placement test offered at TCC. To satisfy Texas Success Initiative (TSI) and course prerequisite requirements, you must meet or exceed the following minimum passing standards:==== These sample assessments are solely intended to complement your studying. There is no guarantee, implied or otherwise, that these alone will enable you to pass.
