Testing - Homeschooling

Home schooled students must be registered with their local school district. At the time the student is ready to take the GED® test, the school district administration must be notified and sign the Underage Testing Waiver form, which indicates the school has been notified and the student is being dropped from the student rolls. The parent or guardian must also sign the form if the student is 16-17 years old.

The signed form must be submitted to:

Barb Unruh
South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation
700 Governors Drive
Pierre, SD 57501
Phone: 605.773.3101
Fax: 605.773.6184
e-mail

Every testing candidate must create an account at gedcomputer.com.

Contact a local Testing Center for more information and assistance.
