The TSIA2 (Texas Success Initiative Assessment, version 2) is a test that measures your skills in reading, writing, and math. Colleges in Texas use it to determine if you are ready for college-level courses or if you may need extra support in certain areas. Your scores help schools place you in the right classes so you have the best chance to succeed. 

The college or university a student plans to attend ultimately determines if a student is exempt from the TSIA2. While the state provides guidelines for exemptions, such as qualifying SAT or ACT scores, each institution reviews a student’s records and decides whether they meet the exemption criteria. 

Students can take the TSIA2 at a college or university testing center. Many colleges also offer a remote/virtual option through an approved proctoring service. 

Once you have submitted your application to the college or university:

1. Visit the Accuplacer Student Portal to retrieve your TSIA2 scores and send your scores to another institution.
