OKC Metro Literacy Coalition has designated funds to help pay for GED/HiSET testing fees. If you are a student, ask your GED/HiSET instructor to apply or find a program here.
OKC Metro Literacy Coalition has granted scholarships for nearly 1,500 GED/HiSet tests helping students across the metro become fully literate!
CRITERIA FOR CONSIDERATION
This application form is FOR LITERACY PROVIDERS ONLY. The scholarship request must be submitted by a staff person at the literacy organization in which the student is enrolled, in order to indicate the student is adequately prepared to pass the test.
The criteria for these funds are need-based. The request can be for either the entire test or a specific portion of the test. Applications will be considered year-round. We cannot guarantee availability of funds for all applications due to the limited balance of the fund. Requests for scholarship must be received at least 14 business days before the test.
BEFORE THE TEST
Instructors should complete the online application (below).
AFTER THE TEST
The student or organization should email OKCMLC indicating the results of each test taken and whether the student received his or her high school equivalency diploma.
This is important for our records to donors who support this fund. We would like to be able to publish the students name when the GED is accomplished, but understand if the student prefers to remain anonymous.
A note from the student or organization about the achievement as well as permission to publish the student’s name may either be emailed or mailed to OKCMLC.
