GED Preparation

You want to get your GED? Great idea! This is your road to college and job training. Did you know that - with very limited exceptions - to be eligible for federal financial aid, you must have a GED or high school diploma?

We can help you prepare so you can pass the GED tests and earn your GED by providing study courses and guidance.

All GED tests are scheduled through GED.com and taken on computer in a test center or through an online proctor. Our instructors can help you prepare for the tests and reach your GED goals!

Tuition Waivers and Scholarships

Courses are free except for a $27 Transportation Fee. This fee gets you a LTD Bus Pass. The fee and bus pass do not apply if you take ABSE/GED courses at the Florence or Cottage Grove Centers. 

If you are only taking ABSE classes, you do not qualify for financial aid. If you can't afford to take the GED exam, you may qualify for a scholarship. Contact us for more information.

Transitioning to Credit Courses

You may be eligible for a 6-credit tuition waiver, once you finish the GED or the CollegeReady courses. Contact us for more information. 

Teen GED Options  

We have a support program for high school-aged students. This program is for you if:

• You are 16 – 17 years old
• You have an Exemption from Compulsory Attendance from your local high school. (The decision to exempt a student is made by local school district officials in accordance with Oregon Revised Statutes and local school district policy.)
• If you cannot get an Exemption from Compulsory Attendance from your local high school, your parent/guardian can create an account and register for home-school services at Lane Education Service District.
• Home-schooled Lane Education Service District students can obtain a GED Release letter that will serve as an equivalent to the Exemption from Compulsory Attendance.
