    4.  Check for TSI Exemptions - Students who were exempted from the English 2 or Algebra 1 EOC due to COVID will have to take the TSI if they         do not have any other test scores that will qualify them for an exemption.

     

    If students are exempt from taking TSI based on EOC or PSAT scores, it is NOT necessary to send Ms. Berry those scores.  You are only required to send ACT or SAT scores if those are what you are using as the TSI exemption.  ALL students who are taking CHEM 1411 and 1412 MUST submit an ACT or SAT score.  Those students cannot be exempt from TSI based on EOC or PSAT scores.  Students interested in taking CHEM 1411 and 1412 who have NOT taken ACT or SAT will need to take MATH 1314 over the summer in order to qualify.

     

    Transcripts and PSAT and EOC scores will be automatically sent to NCTC.  You do NOT need to request to have a transcript sent,  You do NOT have to send Ms. Berry your EOC or PSAT scores.  You ONLY have to send scores if you are using ACT or SAT scores as your TSI waiver.  ALL chemistry students must send me your test scores.  Please make sure the report includes your first and last name.

     

    If you need to take the TSI, you can call the NCTC testing office at 972-899-8335 to schedule a time.

    Due to hackers and malware, NCTC is unable to send out personal information. This is the information you will need to know about the letter dual credit students will receive from NCTC. 

    The first email from NCTC will be “NCTC Application Received”.  It will include a list of missing items in the first paragraph. If it mentions test scores or transcript, disregard.

     

    If it mentions residency documents, contact Mrs. Mannion so she can guide you through the next steps. The second paragraph will address scholarships.

     

    The second email, sent from NCTC,  will begin with “Thank you for choosing NCTC…….”  This is the welcome letter and will provide instructions to the OneLogin Portal.  It will list your USERNAME and Temporary Password in order to setup your OneLogin.  The Temporary Password is the first 7 numbers and will be your NCTC ID.
