HiSET FAQ
What is the HiSET?
The HiSET is a test that gives adults the opportunity to achieve their high school diploma. The High School Equivalency (HSE) Diploma is now earned by taking the HiSET and not the GED or TASC. For specific information about the HiSET, check out "HiSET Test at a Glance." Indiana switched from the GED to the TASC in 2014, and switched to the HiSET in 2021.
Who can take the HiSET?
Anyone who is at least 16 years of age; has lived in Indiana for 30 days; and is not currently enrolled in or graduated from an accredited high school can take the HiSET. 16 and 17 year olds will need a completed exit form with a superintendent's signature. An exit form is different from a withdrawal form that a high school usually provides.
