Texas law requires students to complete assessments in reading, 写作, and mathematics before enrolling in college. 德克萨斯成功倡议(TSI)规定，任何进入公立机构的本科新生都必须接受评估，以确定是否准备好参加大学课程.

Students who fall below the minimum placement scores in reading, 写作, 和/或数学将被放在每个学科领域的发展教育课程中，这些学科领域不具备大学准备能力.

If you have taken placement testing (TSI, Accuplacer, TAKS, STARR, ACT, 坐, etc.) or have taken college coursework before, 请在安排TSI或支付TSI费用之前与测试中心联系，以确认是否需要进行测试.

在帕洛阿尔托学院考试的非澳门新葡京博彩区学生需要向他们将要就读的学院/大学申请远程代金券. Requested vouchers will be emailed to the 帕洛阿尔托学院 测试中心. 远程代金券的学生必须支付20美元的函授费，以帕洛阿尔托学院为了测试.  

如果您已经参加了TSI，并希望帕洛阿尔托学院从另一所大学检索您的分数, 大学, 或者高中, please fill out the Cross-Institution Score Retrieval form (PDF). The form can be scanned and emailed to pac-testcenter@applje.com along with copy of a valid photo ID.
