Tarrant County College requires a state-approved placement test to satisfy admission requirements. Most first-time-in-college students are required to take a placement test to determine college readiness in Mathematics and Reading/Writing before enrolling in college-level courses.

The Texas Success Initiative Assessment 2.0 (TSIA2) is the state-approved placement test. To satisfy TSIA2 and course prerequisite requirements, the student must meet or exceed the minimum passing standards. Information about TSIA2 is available at any campus Testing Services, College catalog, or visit TSI Assessment 2.0.

Students are required to complete the following tasks before registering to take the TSI Assessment:

• Watch the mandatory Pre-Assessment Activity (PAA) video which provides an overview of the TSI Assessment, sample questions and additional study resources.
• Log in or create an account with the practice.accuplacer.org/login
• Choose the Texas Success Initiative 2.0 Pres- Assessment Activity (TSIA2 - PAA) 

Each of the campus Testing Centers offers a variety of tests, which may include:

• TSI Assessment 2.0
• ALEKS PPL (Advanced Math Placement)
• Prior Learning Assessment (PLA)
• HESI A2 Admission Assessment
• CLEP
• Michigan English Placement Test (ESL/ESOL Program Assessment)
