TSAI2 (formerly TSI)
The Texas Assessment Initiative Assessment 2.0 (TSIA2) is the assessment instrument used to determine college readiness for non-exempt students, as required by the Texas Success Initiative. TSIA2 helps determine whether you’re ready for college-level coursework in English language arts and reading (ELAR) and mathematics. These are foundational subjects for your other college coursework and results are used to determine courses offered to students. Sign up for testing with your counselor as opportunities are ongoing throughout the year.
