We are here to help!
Students can meet with Accessible Ed & Disability Resources team members to learn more about getting accommodation in place for the GED. We are here to support students through the process.
All students may access the adjustable font size (up to 20 point), adjustable color and contrast options (10 settings), or an ergonomic keyboard and mouse without needing to make a formal accommodation request.
Students who have documented disabilities must follow the formal request process outlined below for the following accommodations:
- Extended time
- A distraction-reduced site
- A raised workspace
- A reader (no audio or Braille versions are available)
- A writer to type responses
- A sign language interpreter for directions
Initial requests
Accommodation information with links to documentation guidelines are provided online.
Making an appointment
Steps for making an appointment:
- Call the accommodations scheduling office at 800.466.0450 (you cannot schedule an accommodated exam online and accommodations cannot be applied to a test that’s already scheduled). A request for a separate room, reader, or scribe can be arranged with a 10 business day notice.
- Pay for your appointment via the online system.
Canceling an appointment
If you must cancel an appointment, do it by the deadline. You will lose your payment if you do not cancel your appointment by 48 hours and if you are 15 minutes late to your appointment start time.
