What if I lose my GED certificate, or what if a college requests an official transcript or GED scores. Where can I obtain additional copies of my record?
If you have passed the GED test within the previous year, you can send a written request to the GED test center where you took the test. They will mail it directly to the college(s) to which you are applying. There is usually a $5 charge for each official transcript request. The Department of Postsecondary Education permanently maintains the records of all those who passed the GED test. The GED Office is in charge of these records. If you passed your GED years ago and need official documentation, you may call the department’s toll-free number to obtain copies of these documents: 1-800-392-8080.
