The GED tests give individuals the opportunity to earn a State of Minnesota General Education Diploma. These diplomas are widely accepted as meeting the high school graduation requirements for the purpose of employment, promotion, and licensing. In addition, most colleges and universities will accept the diploma as meeting the school's requirements for a high school diploma.

All testers must be 19 years of age or have an age waiver from the State of Minnesota. Applications for age waivers are available through our program office.

The GED tests are computer-based. Four sub-tests make up the GED exam: Reasoning through Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, and Mathematical Reasoning. Students must register for tests online at GED.com; we have a testing center onsite at Crystal Learning Center.
