This is an overview of GED (in Missouri: HiSET) prep classes and test facilities in the Cape Girardeau region. Missouri uses the HiSET for its high school equivalency testing program.
HiSET testing can be done online or at certified Missouri HiSET test centers.
The HiSET®, like the GED®, offers individuals who didn’t graduate high school the opportunity to earn an equivalent diploma.
The exam includes five tests in Literacy Reading, Literacy Writing, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies.
The HiSET exam can be done in both a paper-based and a computer-based model, whereas the GED is offered only on a computer.
In the past, online HiSET testing was not possible. You needed to show up in person at one of Missouri’s official test centers.
Now, that has changed, however, with the introduction of the online HiSET-At-Home-Exam. Learn more below.

Online HiSET Exam Introduced
In the past, there was never an option to take the GED or HiSET online. Now, however, things have changed. The HiSET exam is now also available online.
When taking this ‘HiSET-At-Home’ exam, a proctor will take you through the online test-taking process and check whether you do everything in line with the regulations. To learn all about this great development, check out -> Launching the online HiSET exam.
HiSET Registration
Registration and making payments for the HiSET exam are done entirely online on the HiSET website. Your unofficial scores will be available immediately after you complete one of the computer-based subtests for multiple-choice sections.
You can access your unofficial scores when you log in to your HiSET account. The Test Center staff has no access to your HiSET scores.
Transcripts
Schools and test centers do not maintain GED or HiSET transcripts. If you would like to get a copy of your GED or HiSET transcript, you need to contact Missouri’s Department of Elementary & Secondary Education and obtain it from them.
You can go to the official HSE Official Transcript webpage and submit your request for a transcript online. You may also contact the High School Equivalency Department at 573-751-3504.
