Test Information

At the GED Testing Center, students can take the tests of General Educational Development (GED). The tests cover:

• Writing Skills
• Mathematics
• Social Studies
• Science
• Reading

With passing scores, the student earns a GED which is awarded by the North Carolina Community College System. This certificate is generally accepted on an equal basis with a traditional diploma for employment, promotion, or further education.
To be eligible for testing, an applicant must:

• be at least 18 years old (16- and 17-year-olds may test with special permission).
• be a current North Carolina resident.
• be certified to test through the GED Preparation Program
• pay the testing fees ($7.50 for initial testing and $2.50 for retesting in Writing Skills) at the Continuing Education Business Office, Pines Building, Room 205D or the Business Office in the Simpson Administration Building before arriving at the testing center.
