TSI Course Placement
If you have tested into a college readiness class, you will be required to enroll in at least one class in your lowest tested level each semester until you have completed all your required classes.
How do I know which class I test into?
Use the following tables to determine which class you're required to take based on your TSI scores.
Math
Starting Summer 2017, we will offer 2 pathways in mathematics: algebraic and non-algebraic. Find out which pathway you can take, depending on your major and your transfer institution's math course requirements.
NCBO stands for non-course-based option.

What if I try to register for other classes without registering for my college readiness class?
To be able to register for other classes, you must first register for at least one of your required college readiness classes.
If you try to enroll in another class without first enrolling in your college readiness class, you will receive an error message in WebAdvisor, instructing you that you will need to be enrolled in one of the listed classes.
