Nevada requires GED test takers to be at least 18. A 16- or 17-year-old may test at a testing center if granted permission by the board of trustees of their school district, which may require a qualifying score on a practice test to show readiness.
Applicants cannot already hold a U.S. high school diploma and cannot be currently enrolled in a Nevada high school at the time of testing.
You must be a Nevada resident to test and be awarded the Certificate of High School Equivalency. Out-of-state testers should check the residency rule of the state where they intend to claim a credential.
A current Nevada driver's license, state ID, U.S. military ID, or passport is accepted at every testing center. Expired IDs and school IDs are not accepted.
Both options are available. In person costs $31 per subject; online is $36 per subject and requires a recent 'green' score on a GED Ready practice test, plus a webcam and a private quiet room.
You must score at least 145 on each of the four subject tests independently. Subjects can be retaken one at a time without re-doing the others.
16- and 17-year-olds can test at a testing center with permission from their school district board of trustees, which may require a qualifying score on a practice test.
These are the official fees from GED Testing Service for Nevada test takers — what the test itself costs. Our prep is a separate one-time payment, with a Pass Guarantee on the Pro plan.

Real Nevada students. Real diplomas. Real next chapters — nursing programs, college, the National Guard, the promotions they were capped on.
Started a medical assisting program at the College of Southern Nevada.
“I work graveyards on the Strip, so I studied at four in the morning when the house was quiet. Cheyenne campus was twelve minutes away. Ten weeks and the whole thing cost me a hundred and twenty four dollars.”
Enrolled at Nevada State University after starting at CSN.
“I tested at the Henderson campus on College Drive, two subjects at a time. Nobody tells you that you can split them up, and that changed the whole thing from impossible to just work.”
Cleared the diploma requirement for a warehouse supervisor role.
“I took math and science in Spanish and the other two in English, which Nevada allows. Failed science by four points the first time and the retake was five dollars, which is the only reason I tried again the same month.”
Moved into an airport ground operations role after passing all four subjects.
“The diagnostic said language arts and social studies were already passing and math was miles off. So I spent nine weeks on math and barely touched the rest. That is the only reason it worked around a full-time job.”
Enrolled at CSN Henderson for an early-childhood education certificate.
“I was 17 and my district board signed off after I cleared the practice test. Ten weeks of studying after the baby went down. I started classes the term right after.”
Moved into a higher-paying role with one of the Elko-area gold mines.
“I tested online from my place after I hit the green score on the practice test. Three months of evenings. The diploma was what the company needed to move me up the pay scale.”
Started a medical-billing program at the College of Southern Nevada.
“I studied about forty minutes a night after my shift on the Strip. Eleven weeks later I passed all four. Testing in person kept the whole battery to $124.”
Hired into a warehouse logistics role near the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center.
“I tested in Spanish for math because that is the language I count in. Same certificate. Two and a half months of lessons on lunch breaks and the job came through.”
Same four steps for everyone. Most students reach the final step in eight to fourteen weeks.
A 30-minute baseline across all four subjects produces a personal heat-map of what to study first. The plan is built from your data, not a template.
Short video lessons, then practice on the same skill the same day. The platform reorders your queue around what you miss.
Full-length, timed simulations that look and feel exactly like the official test. Three clean passes and you are ready.

Yes. The Nevada Certificate of High School Equivalency is treated identically to a traditional Nevada high-school diploma by every accredited college, every employer, and every branch of the U.S. military. It is issued by the Nevada Department of Education once you pass all four subject tests at 145 or higher.
In person the test is $31 per subject, or $124 for the full battery; online it is $36 per subject, or $144. If you fail a subject, the discounted test-center retake is $5 (GED Testing Service waives its $26 fee); online you get one retake before a 60-day wait. The GED Ready practice test is a separate $7.99 per subject, and our prep is a one-time payment.
Yes, with a step. Nevada lets you test freely at 18, but 16- and 17-year-olds can test at a center with permission from their school district board of trustees. The district may require a qualifying score on a practice test to confirm you are ready. Once that permission is granted, you register and test like anyone else.
Yes. Online proctored testing is available through GED Testing Service at $36 per subject. You need a recent 'green' (likely-to-pass) score on a GED Ready practice test, a webcam-equipped computer, and a private quiet room. If you prefer the lower $31 in-person price, you can test at any center instead.
Most students who study consistently for 45 to 60 minutes a day are test-ready within 8 to 14 weeks. Your day-one diagnostic shows where you actually stand, and the plan adapts from there. Nevada does not require a minimum number of prep hours to sit the test.
Yes. Nevada has a residency requirement, so you must be a Nevada resident to test and to be awarded the Certificate of High School Equivalency. Out-of-state testers can prepare with us, but should check the residency rule of the state where they intend to claim a credential.
Yes. The GED test in Nevada is offered in English or Spanish, in person and online, and you can combine subjects taken in different languages to earn the credential. Twigera's prep is in English; we recommend testing in whichever language you read and think in most comfortably. The certificate issued is identical regardless of which language you test in.
From a quiet 45 minutes after the kids go down to your Certificate of High School Equivalency in hand — most students get there in three months, and testing in person keeps the whole battery to $124. Start with the free diagnostic and we'll show you the shortest path.
