With the upcoming changes being made to the GED® there may be some confusion of how and when you can take the test. 

Be sure to read "Truth About GED® Testing Online" so that you are informed!

Truth About GED® Testing Online

From the people who create the GED Tests: GED Testing Service®

The GED Tests cannot be taken online.

If you take a test on the Internet that claims to be the GED Tests, it is not a legitimate program. Some people may find out later that it is an alternative diploma or that it is a diploma mill. Do your research before spending any money, and use the resources below to find out more.

Check Your School or Program for Accreditation

The GED Tests and GED credential have been administered by the Department of Education in each of the 50 U.S. states since 1974.
  • Accreditation means that an educational program at a school meets certain levels of quality. Each state uses accrediting agencies to review educational programs and determine if the levels are met.
  • Check your school's accrediting agency and make sure it is on the list of authorized accrediting agencies posted by your state department of education.
