Can the GED tests scores be used for college admission or to enter the military?
Nearly all United States colleges and universities accept the State of Florida High School Diploma as a high school equivalency credential. GED tests can not be used as a substitute for placement or admissions tests. The Commission on Educational Credit and Credentials recommends that postsecondary institution officials, employers, training program officials, licensing boards and all branches of the armed services accept the high school credential awarded on the basis of the results of the GED tests in the same manner as they accept regular high school diplomas. GED candidates may apply for the military. Check with your local recruiter for more information. Grade point averages cannot be determined from GED test scores. However, GED percentile ranks can be viewed as approximately “class rank;” GED percentile rankings represent the GED graduate’s performance related to the performance on the GED Tests of a representative group of graduating high school seniors.
