The TSI exam is used by Texas public colleges and universities to determine college readiness in reading, writing and mathematics. The scores are used for placement in core/basic post-secondary courses. TSI scores are required before college level courses can be taken. The cost of the assessment is $20.00 for first time testers; $10.00 re-testers and $10.00 if a student qualifies for a fee waiver. Students may register for the exam in the Counseling office; please see Mrs. Casarez. Seats are limited, so plan ahead.
