HiSET

HiSET (High School Equivalency Test) is an alternative to a U.S. high school diploma, GED, and TASC test. The test was designed based on the OCTAE College and Career Readiness Standards for Adult Education. It is governed by ETS and is provided in cooperation with relevant authority of the state or territories.

People who choose to graduate from high school early can earn a high school equivalency (HSE) credential with the HiSET test. Candidates are required to demonstrate that they have the same skills and knowledge as a high school graduate. Upon passing the test, candidates are issued a high school equivalency diploma and test score transcript by the respective state or jurisdiction where they took the test.
