GED in Florida Overview

The GED is Florida's official high school equivalency diploma program, administered through the Florida Department of Education in partnership with GED Testing Service. Florida adults who did not complete high school can earn a state-recognized diploma by passing all four GED subject tests: Reasoning Through Language Arts (RLA), Mathematical Reasoning, Science, and Social Studies.

A Florida GED diploma is accepted by all Florida employers, Florida colleges and universities, the US military, and professional licensing agencies. Florida community colleges recognize GED scores of 165+ (College Ready) for placement exemptions, saving students money and time on remedial coursework.

GED tests in Florida are taken in person at Pearson VUE authorized testing centers. Florida has more than 200 Pearson VUE testing locations, including at most Florida community colleges and many public libraries. You cannot take the official GED exam from home.

  1. Create or log in to your myGED account at ged.com
