HiSET

The HiSET was approved by the State of California as one of three High School Equivalency Tests.  The HISET® exam, the new alternative to the GED® test, certifies a test taker’s attainment of academic knowledge and skills equivalent to those of a high school graduate.  You have the option to take the test on paper or computer.

Fees: (Cashier’s Check or money order only)

Bundle Package $150: This includes the state fee, a full battery (one test per subject) and one free retest per subject, if needed.

Pay as you Go: Individual Tests are $25 each.  You must pay the $25 state fee with the initial test which totals $50 for your first payment.  No free retests are included.

Retest: $25 per test

*If you miss a scheduled appointment, you forfeit your fee and battery attempt.  If you are unable to take your test for a reason out of your control and can provide valid documentation, ETS will consider your request.
