At 18 you can test in person or online with no extra steps. In person, 16- and 17-year-olds can test with parental consent, a GED Ready score of 145+, superintendent approval, and documentation filed with the Bureau of Adult Education. Online testing requires you to be 18.
You cannot already hold a U.S. high-school diploma. Adults must not be currently enrolled in high school, but approved 16- and 17-year-olds in New Hampshire may remain enrolled while earning the equivalency credential.
GED testing in New Hampshire is for state residents. The credential is issued by the New Hampshire Department of Education, Bureau of Adult Education. Out-of-state testers earn their credential through their home state instead.
A current driver's license, state ID, U.S. military ID, or passport is accepted at every New Hampshire testing center. Expired IDs and school IDs are not accepted.
Both options are available statewide, though online testing requires you to be 18. Online proctored testing also requires a recent 'green' score on a GED Ready practice test, a webcam-equipped computer, and a private, quiet room.
You must score at least 145 on each of the four subject tests independently. If you miss the mark on one subject, you retake only that subject — not the whole battery.

Real New Hampshire students. Real diplomas. Real next chapters — nursing programs, college, the National Guard, the promotions they were capped on.
Enrolled in the nursing prerequisites at Manchester Community College.
“I am 34 with two kids. I needed something I could do after bedtime. Eleven weeks later I had the diploma and a seat in the spring class.”
Moved into a technician role at a Nashua manufacturer.
“Math was my wall. The short lessons let me redo the same idea until it clicked instead of sitting in a classroom. I scored well above the cutoff on every section.”
Started a career program at Nashua Community College.
“I tested online from home, no commute at all. Studied about an hour a night for ten weeks and passed all four. NCC took the diploma the same week.”
Started a nursing-assistant program at Nashua Community College.
“I have a toddler and work part-time, so a classroom schedule was never realistic. The lessons were short enough to fit during nap time. I had all four subjects done in under three months.”
Started an electrician apprenticeship after testing at NHTI.
“The apprenticeship wouldn't take me without the diploma. Math was the wall, so that's where I started. I tested in person here in Concord and started the program that spring.”
Enrolled at River Valley Community College after finishing early at 17.
“I was 17 and stuck. My counselor helped me get the approval to test early, and I stayed enrolled while I did it. Passing all four meant I could start college a full year ahead.”
Started a manufacturing-technology program at Manchester Community College.
“There's steady work in the mills and at BAE here, but every application wanted the diploma. I studied at night and tested online once I turned 18. Took about ten weeks start to finish.”
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 an adult-education center in New Hampshire, or take it online from home with live proctoring if you are 18 or older. The four subject tests can be taken in any order, on separate days. Most New Hampshire learners finish across two to four sittings, and you only sit the subjects you are ready for.
Yes. Passing the GED earns the New Hampshire High School Equivalency Certificate, issued by the New Hampshire Department of Education. It is treated the same as a high-school diploma by accredited colleges, employers, and every branch of the U.S. military. The Community College System of New Hampshire accepts it for admission, and it meets the diploma requirement for most apprenticeships and licenses in the state.
The official test is $36 per subject, or $144 for the full four-subject battery — the same price in person or online. A discounted in-person retake is $10 per subject; online retakes stay $36. The GED Ready practice test is $7.99 per subject. Adult-education centers offer free prep classes, which are separate from the test fees. Our prep is a separate one-time payment.
Often, yes — in person. New Hampshire lets 16- and 17-year-olds test in person with parental consent, a GED Ready score of 145 or higher, superintendent approval, and documentation filed with the Bureau of Adult Education. You may even remain enrolled in high school while you do it. Online testing, though, requires you to be 18.
Yes, if you are 18 or older. Online proctored testing runs through GED Testing Service and requires a recent 'green' (likely-to-pass) score on a GED Ready practice test, a webcam-equipped computer, and a private, quiet room. The price is the same as in person, and the diploma issued is identical. Test-takers under 18 use an in-person center.
Most learners 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. New Hampshire does not require a minimum number of prep hours, so you can move as fast as your scores allow.
Yes. GED testing in New Hampshire is for state residents, and the credential is issued by the New Hampshire Department of Education. If you live in another state, you would test and earn your credential there instead. You schedule the four subject exams through your GED.com account, present a valid government photo ID that matches your registration, and your official scores post to that account once you pass.
Yes. The GED test in New Hampshire is offered in English or Spanish — you choose at registration. Twigera prep is in English, and we recommend testing in whichever language you read and think in most comfortably. The credential issued is identical regardless of which language you test in.
