Florida allows 16- and 17-year-olds to take the GED if they submit a notarized Underage Testing Form and a formal declaration of intent to terminate school enrollment, per Section 1003.21(1)(c). 18-year-olds and adults need no extra paperwork. The Florida Department of Education's adult-ed offices handle the underage form locally.
Applicants cannot already hold a U.S. high-school diploma. Under-18 applicants must file the declaration of intent to terminate school enrollment before they can sit the test.
Florida does not require state residency, but you must register with a valid Florida address and a current government-issued photo ID. Out-of-state testers traveling into Florida should verify with their chosen testing center before booking.
A current Florida driver's license, Florida state ID, U.S. military ID, U.S. passport, or Permanent Resident Card is accepted at every Florida testing center. Expired IDs are not accepted. The name on your ID must match the name on your ged.com account.
Florida does not currently offer online proctored GED testing. All four subject tests are taken in person at an approved Florida testing center. If you want to test online, you would need to be a resident of a state that offers OnVUE.
You must score at least 145 on each of the four subject tests independently. Subjects can be retaken individually without re-doing the others, and the diploma is issued by the Florida Department of Education once all four are passing.
16- and 17-year-olds file a notarized declaration of intent to terminate school enrollment under Florida law plus an Underage Testing Form.

In Florida, free adult-education GED prep is state-funded, and for some learners that is a genuinely good fit. Here is an honest look at where it works — and where self-paced online prep works better.
Not sure which fits? The free diagnostic shows you exactly where you stand in Florida, then you decide.
The official GED is administered at testing centers across Florida — plus online from home where the state allows it. Pick a city for the local center directory.
Real Florida students. Real diplomas. Real next chapters — nursing programs, college, the National Guard, the promotions they were capped on.
Promoted from housekeeping to front-desk supervisor at his Orlando hotel.
“My boss pulled me aside and said the only thing in the way was the diploma. I studied on my phone during turnovers for two and a half months. My badge says supervisor now.”
Started the RN program at Miami Dade College.
“I worked the overnight shift at a Hialeah pharmacy for three years and translated for half the customers. Twelve weeks of studying after my kid went to school, and Miami Dade sent me my acceptance. The pharmacy manager is on my reference list now.”
Joined the Florida Air National Guard, medical specialist track.
“The recruiter handed back my paperwork and said no diploma, no slot. Eight weeks. I scored above the cutoff on every section. I report to drill next month, and my mother still cannot believe it.”
Accepted at Hillsborough Community College, business administration.
“My dad runs a roofing crew and wanted me on the trucks. I wanted a desk. Ten weeks studying on lunch breaks, and HCC sent the welcome packet. Now I keep the books for my dad's crew on the side.”
Cleared the education requirement for a military promotion.
“My command needed the credential on file before the board met. Nine weeks, four subjects at South Campus, and the paperwork went in on time.”
Moved into a hospital support role on the Southside.
“I left school at sixteen and spent twenty years assuming the door was shut. It was not. Forty-five minutes a night after work, and I sat the last subject at Kent in March.”
Enrolled at Florida International University.
“I assumed a GED would count against me at FIU. It did not. Admissions treated it exactly like a diploma and I started that fall.”
Cleared the education requirement for an aviation ground role at MIA.
“The job posting wanted a diploma or equivalent and closed in ten weeks. I studied on the Metrorail both ways and sat all four subjects at Wolfson.”
Same four steps for everyone. Most students reach the final step in eight to fourteen weeks.

Schedule the official GED through ged.com (run by GED Testing Service) at any of 80+ Florida testing locations — county adult and community education centers, Florida College System campuses (Miami Dade, Valencia, Hillsborough CC, Broward College, St. Petersburg College), or Pearson VUE Professional Centers in every major metro. The four subject tests can be taken in any order, on separate days. Florida is in-person only — there's no online proctored option.
Yes. The Florida High School Diploma issued by the State Board of Education is treated identically to a regular Florida high-school diploma by every accredited college, every employer, and every branch of the U.S. military. The diploma is issued by the Florida Department of Education's Division of Career and Adult Education after you pass all four subject tests.
The official test is $38 per subject, or $152 for the full four-subject battery — among the lower test fees in the country. If you fail a subject, the discounted retake at a Florida test center is $12 per subject (GED Testing Service waives its portion; you pay only the Florida test-center fee). The discount is valid 12 months and resets each time you re-pay. The GED Ready practice test is $7.99 per subject, or $25.99 for the four-subject bundle.
Yes. Florida is one of the most permissive states for younger learners. 16- and 17-year-olds can sit the GED if they submit a notarized Underage Testing Form and a formal declaration of intent to terminate school enrollment, per Section 1003.21(1)(c). Your local adult-education office handles the form. There is no path for 15-year-olds. If you are 16 or 17 and want to test, start by talking to your county school district's adult-ed office — they handle the form locally.
No. Florida does not currently offer OnVUE online proctored GED testing. All four subject tests must be taken in person at an approved Florida testing center. Florida is one of six states that have not enabled the online option through GED Testing Service. If you are a Florida resident and want to take the GED online, you would need to test as a resident of a state that offers OnVUE, which most students do not pursue.
No. Florida does not require state residency. You do need a valid government-issued photo ID and a Florida address at the time of registration. Out-of-state testers traveling into Florida should call the chosen testing center first to confirm scheduling.
Yes. The full GED test is available in Spanish in Florida — all four subjects. You can mix English and Spanish across subjects — take Math in Spanish and RLA in English if that serves you. The diploma issued is identical regardless of which language you test in. Twigera prep is delivered in English; we recommend testing in whichever language you write and think in most comfortably.
Most students who study 45 to 60 minutes a day are test-ready within 8 to 14 weeks. The day-one diagnostic shows where you actually are; the plan adapts from there. Florida does not require a minimum number of prep hours before testing — you can sit the test as soon as your practice scores say you are ready.
The Florida Underage Testing Form is provided by your local Florida county school district's adult-education office. They handle the notarization too. You'll also need a separate signed declaration of intent to terminate school enrollment, per Section 1003.21(1)(c) of the Florida Statutes. Both documents go to the testing center at registration. Without both, 16- and 17-year-olds cannot sit the test in Florida.
Some CareerSource regional workforce boards in Florida cover GED testing fees for eligible learners — typically those enrolled in workforce-development programs or receiving WIOA-funded services. Eligibility and coverage vary by region; CareerSource Florida has 24 local workforce boards, and each sets its own policies. Contact your local CareerSource office before paying out-of-pocket. Some Florida College System institutions also cover testing for enrolled adult-ed students.
