Topic > Importance of Double Credit - 1039

Literally. To attend college as a high school, you must demonstrate that you are at college level. The college will know if you are (or are not…) through the Texas Success Initiative Test, or TSI. This is a three to four hour test, so be prepared. If you have done all the paperwork, you should receive an email with your Campus Wide ID or CWID. You will need this number to take the pre-TSI. The pre-TSI is only a couple of questions, so don't worry if you end up getting a 66%. The test is not taken into account, it is just to let you know where you stand. There are also study guides and practice problems you can do. Next, you will need to go to campus and take the test. TSI has a small fee to pay to take the test. Once you pay (on campus), go to the testing center and take the test. When you're done you should get a printed version of your sheet music. Be sure to keep them just in case. There could be a mistake and the college has no record of you taking the test, so that piece of paper might just save you (not a personal experience at all...). The minimum score is written on the front and your score is written on the inside. If your scores are at or above the minimum, congratulations, you're ready for college! If not, no big deal
