Taking the GED^® in Idaho

You must be at least 18 years old and not currently enrolled in high school to be eligible to take the GED®. If you are between 16 and 18 years old, you’ll need to send a completed GED® Youth Waiver form to your selected testing center before you can schedule any tests. Email notification will be sent to the tester once the youth waiver is processed by the testing site. Please note that you can study for the GED® and take GED® Ready tests without a waiver on file at the testing center.

To register to test for the GED®, please visit GED.com. There you can set up a user profile, view testing sites in your area, and schedule tests. Taking all four tests costs $120 total. You do not have to take all the tests at the same time, and they can be taken in any order. The four current GED® tests are:

Reasoning Through Language Arts: $36
Mathematical Reasoning: $36
Science: $36
Social Studies: $36

Please Note:

The information you provide when you register at GED.com is the information that will appear on your official GED® records. Use your full legal name, and provide the correct address and contact information.
