TSIA2 (Texas State Initiative Assessment)

Students are required to take TSIA2 placement tests in math and ELAR (reading and writing) before registering for classes.* The results of these placement tests will be used by college advisors when creating class schedules for students.

Before Testing: Prior to taking TSIA2 assessments, students must complete the pre-assessment activity (PAA).  To access the PAA, click the "TSIA2 Pre-Assessment Activity" button above and choose Frank Phillips College from the dropdown menu.  This pre-assessment activity should be completed at home prior to testing.

Testing Schedules: TSIA2 group testing is offered in January and August.  No appointment is necessary on group testing days.  To schedule a testing session outside of the group testing schedule, call 806-457-4277.

Cost: The cost is $10 per subject, so the total cost is $20.  Testing fees may be paid with cash, debit card, or credit card.  Retests are the same price.

Testing Day:

• Bring a non-expired photo ID
• No cell phones are allowed
• Tests are not timed, but allow approximately two hours per subject

*Certain exemption criteria for TSI placement testing is available in the FPC catalog found here: College Catalog
