SHSU REQUIREMENTS TO SATISFY THE TEXAS SUCCESS INITIATIVE

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Students must continuously enroll in the appropriate developmental program until they have satisfied all TSI Requirements.

Students who fail one or more sections of a TSI Test may satisfy TSI Requirements by:

1. getting a passing score on a retake of a TSI test,
2. completing a developmental program in the appropriate area with a grade of "C " or better, or
3. completing an approved college-level course(s) in the appropriate area with a grade of "C" or better

Students who think they meet the requirement should provide the Registrar's Office with an official score copy if the score is not on file in the system.

Students are not required to take remedial courses during the Summer I or Summer II Sessions.

Students who fail or defer more than one section of a TSI test cannot enroll in upper-level (300/400) courses.

SPECIFIC MATHEMATICS REQUIREMENTS

Students can enroll in a college level mathematics course if they:

• have a documented TSI Exemption,
• meet the required score with a TSI Test (See Placement Chart above),
• completed a previous college level mathematics course with a grade of "C" or better,
• completed MTH 032D with a grade of "C" or better,
• completed the higher level MTH 031D with a grade of "C" or better in F03 or with an "S" prior to F03,
• are repeating a mathematics course previously attempted, or
• are currently taking MTH 032D at SHSU with the understanding that they will not be allowed to remain in the course if MTH 032D is not completed with a grade of "C" or better.
• Students who have satisfied TSI requirements but have not met the required TSI test score standard must take MTH 032D before taking a college-level math course but are not required to remediate every semester.

Students who have satisfied TSI requirements but have not yet met the required TSI test score prerequisite, must take MTH 032D before taking a college-level mathematics course but are not required to remediate every semester.
