GED Applicants

GED applicants must submit official GED scores, a high school transcript from the last high school attended, ACT or SAT results (not required of students 23 years of age or older or out of high school five or more years), an essay (minimum 250 words) and a letter of recommendation that speaks to the applicant's accomplishments and ability to succeed in an academic environment.

Strong candidates for admission present a minimum 550 GED average. The admission decision includes assessment of overall academic preparation in all core subject areas, including rigor, foundation skills, and trends. To make the most of the holistic review process, GED applicants are encouraged to use the essay to provide specific information about their educational background, personal and professional accomplishments since leaving school, and factors supporting a return to school.
