Applications are available in the Admissions Office. The purpose of the test is to determine if students have the academic skills to be successful in college, students failing sections of the test are required to retake those parts of the test after remediation. The TASP test assesses skills in reading, writing, and mathematics. It is administered at Kingwood College. Registration materials are available in the Advising office.
Remediation is required each semester until all sections are passed.
Students requiring remediation on the basis of TASP scores must complete a Mandatory Attendance Form during registration which stipulates that students attend class regularly or be subject to withdrawal from classes. If students are withdrawn from the college, they will not be considered for readmission without an appeal. Although the Counseling Center maintains course equivalencies and transfer guides for most Texas schools, these are subject to change and the final authority on accepting transfer credit rests with the receiving institution. Admission to certain fields of study may be competitive, limiting access, and thus require a higher grade point average than the general college requirements for admission. Students should consult with the Counseling Center for information regarding transferability of coursework.
