Tompkins Cortland Community College has established a program to prepare students for the GED (General Education Development) exam. This program will help students transition from the GED program to become a matriculated TC3 student. The GED exam is a national test that measures the mastery of basic skills and general knowledge that are acquired in a four-year high school education. The GED consists of five tests: writing (including an essay), science, social studies, literature and the arts, and math. The credential received for passing the GED exam is widely recognized by colleges, training schools, trade unions, and employers as equivalent to a high school diploma. Many four-year colleges and some branches of the military require a semester or two at a community college such as TC3 in addition to a GED diploma. A student entering the GED program is tested to find a starting point in subject matter that is covered in the GED tests. GED preparation meets on a daily basis. Academic occupy the major portion of each class. The classes are divided between individual and group instruction with self-pacing the norm. Planning what to do after the GED is also emphasized. Depending on the skill level upon entering and the amount of effort put forth, most people qualify to sit for the GED exam in four to six months. Passing a predictor/qualifier tests indicates readiness to take the GED exam. GED is an alternative to the 24-credit state mandated requirement. For more information or an application, please contact the Continuing Education Office GED at TC3 at (607) 844-6586.
