Welcome to the Del Mar College TSI Pre-Assessment Activity (PAA)

What is the Texas Success Initiative (TSI)?

The TSI is a state mandate that requires testing to measure college-level readiness in reading, mathematics, and writing. Your test scores will not impact your admission to DMC, but you will be required to meet with an Advisor and enroll in a mandatory developmental education program each semester if your scores do not meet certain requirements.

Why is the TSI important?

This test will determine which classes you will be required to take during your first and subsequent semesters at Del Mar College. Your scores will determine if you will be advised into mandatory developmental courses before beginning college level courses in math, reading, and writing.

It is very important that you try your best in order to be placed accurately.
