ACTION Proposed
Preamble Texas Admin Code Rule
Effective fall 2013, the Texas Success Initiative Assessment (TSIA) is the only Board-approved assessment instrument used under this title. The TSIA, Version 2.0 (TSIA2) will replace the TSIA on January 11, 2021, at which time the TSIA2 will be the only Board-approved assessment instrument offered under this title. [Beginning with the institution's first class day of Academic Year (fall) 2013, an institution of higher education shall use the TSI Assessment offered by the College Board as the only Board-approved assessment instrument under this title. Any previously-employed assessments (ACCUPLACER, Compass, THEA, Asset, Compass ESL, ACCUPLACER ESL) can no longer be used under this title for entering students who initially enroll in any course on or after the institution's first class day in fall 2013 or for any students retesting for TSI purposes.] Test administrators of the TSI Assessment must follow the requirements and processes for test administration as set forth by the THECB and the test vendor.

The agency certifies that legal counsel has reviewed the proposal and found it to be within the state agency's legal authority to adopt.
