GED Preparation
The GED test series is designed to offer students age 17 or older an alternative route to a high school diploma. This classroom based course consisting of English, Writing Skills, Social Studies, Interpreting Literature and the Arts, Science, and Mathematics prepares students to take the State of Connecticut administered GED exam which is given monthly throughout the year.
Students 16 and older may enroll in the preparatory classes but are not eligible to take the exam until they are 17 years of age or older and have provided documentation that they are no longer enrolled in school.
The test is free for students under 21 or veterans. There is a $13 fee for those 21 and older or non-veterans. There is a $13 retake or reapplication fee for those over 21.
Accommodations on the GED test are available for qualified individuals with a disability. See CALENDAR for testing dates.
