In the absence of a high School Diploma, the GED test is used as a measure of an individual’s basic competencies in the areas of English (writing and literature), social studies, mathematics, and science.
This certificate is accepted by the employment and academic communities as an accurate assessment of basic skills. To pass the test, students must obtain an overall average of 450 with no sub-test below 410. A Nevada State Certificate of High School Equivalency (GED) is then issued.
Individuals wishing to pursue a Nevada State Certificate of High School equivalency must meet the following requirements:
1. 17 years of age or older.
2. Valid driver's license, State ID card, current Passport, Military ID or Consular ID.
3. Be officially withdrawn from school.
4. Pay a GED testing fee of $50.00
5. PRE-Register for testing.
6. Accomodations for individuals that qualify for Americans with Disabilities Act.
7. 16 years old (per CCSD Regulation 5128) may test with special permission only.
