How old do I have to be to get my HiSET?

A seventeen (17) year old may be allowed to take the HiSET exam upon recommendation of the local school superintendent. This recommendation must come in the form of a document signed by the superintendent of schools or their designee. The superintendent may require written documentation from the student to support this recommendation. A copy of this form is available at your local adult education program. For more information, please contact your local adult education program.
