The General Educational Development Test is administered by the American Council on Education, and is widely regarded as equivalent to a high school diploma. Acceptance to college or university usually requires the submission of official scores directly from the American Council on Education to the school itself. For most test-takers, this is done through your state's GED Test Administrator. Overseas test-takers, persons serving in the military or inmates of federal prisons may request the test scores online through the American Council on Education.
