A GED candidate must be a resident of Texas, must be officially withdrawn from school and must not have received a high school diploma from an accredited high school in the U.S. Candidates should register by calling the GCC Testing Center at 903-463-8724 to reserve a seat for the exam. Reservations are required by July 9 and seating is limited.
Examinees will report to the Rayburn Collegiate Center located at 1909 Highway 121 North at 7:45 a.m. July 14. Examinees must bring three items: government-issued photo identification (Texas driver’s license, Department of Public Safety ID card, passport, military ID card), Social Security card and $65 exact cash. Seventeen year-old candidates must provide additional forms available from the GCC Testing Center. Testing will last all day, from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. with a short break for lunch.
