IMPORTANT NOTICE

We receive hundreds of applications from individuals who want to take the GED test. Processing those applications takes staff time and effort. Since we have limited test seating, we often have to postpone the test dates for other applicants wishing to test. As a result, if you schedule the GED test with us and do not show, you will not be allowed to reschedule for at least 6 months.

Important GED Test Application Instructions

Mail your application to us as soon as possible in advance of the date you wish to test so that we have enough time to process your application. There are a total of 25 items on the application. Please make sure you carefully read all the items. Do not forget to sign item 24.

If you have taken the GED test before, you must include with your GED application, a copy of the transcript from your previous GED test. We will return your application if we do not receive the transcript with your application.

Tests at our GED Testing Center are given over two days, on Friday, 6pm - 9:30pm and Saturday, 9am - 4:00pm. (On Saturday there will be a 30 minute lunch break).

The English GED Test consists of an exam in the five subject areas: Language Arts Writing Test, Social Studies, Science, Language Arts Reading, Math Part I, Math Part II.

If you filled out a GED test application, received confirmation from us that you are testing, and wish to test on less than the full number of subject tests, you MUST come on Friday at 6pm. On Friday you will fill out all the required test information forms. In addition, the chief test examiner will decide whether you can take less than the full number of subject tests. It is up to the GED chief test examiner whether or not you can take less than the full number of subject tests. Therefore, you MUST bring with you the GED Test transcript of your last GED test.
