Your future starts here by earning your Maryland high school diploma.
Prepare for the GED®
GED® classes are typically 60 hours but can vary depending on test scores. Tuition cost is based on hours of instruction. If you have already passed parts of the GED® or GED Ready®, you may enroll for less hours at a reduced cost.
Evening and morning classes are held at Elkton Station and the MRDC Family Education Center year-round. Evening classes are held at North East Middle School, Perryville Middle School and Rising Sun Middle School at designated times throughout the school year.
Eligibility
To be eligible for GED® class, students must assess at GED® level on the math and reading assessments or score 140 or above on the GED® Ready test which is administered the first Friday of every month or by appointment. Students can choose to take all four GED Ready® tests at once for a $20.00 fee or pay $5.00 per individual test.
Orientation/Assessment
Free two day Orientation/Assessment classes are held several times a week at Elkton Station. Call Suzanne O'Bryan at 443-907-1394 to schedule the Orientation/Assessment class or the GED Ready® test. You may also want to look at some frequently asked questions to learn even more.
