High School Equivalency Orientation
Description
Carteret's High School Equivalency (HSE) program is tuition-free and lets you learn at your own pace and on your own schedule. Classes are offered in English and Spanish on-campus, online, and at off-campus sites allowing students to prepare for the GED or HiSET tests with the assistance from a certified instructor.
The test taken is indicated on transcripts but not on diplomas. HSE candidates must register and pay for tests online, then complete the tests at the approved testing center at Carteret Community College. Candidates who successfully complete the HSE tests in North Carolina will receive a diploma from the State Board of the Community College system.
The High School Equivalency orientation is the first step students must take to enroll in High School Equivalency courses. It is mandatory, meaning students cannot take our placement test or be placed in High School Equivalency classes until the orientation is completed.
