GED Classes Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Last Updated on April 10, 2024.

This article lists all GED and HiSET prep locations and testing sites in the Philadelphia area. Pennsylvania offers two options for high school equivalency testing: the GED and HiSET exams.

Both exams are available online and at official Pennsylvania test centers.

The program offers adults who never completed high school the chance to acquire an equivalent credential.

The HiSET® and GED® assessments measure knowledge at a level that compares to that of graduating high school seniors.

Some students learn better under the guidance of a teacher at a physical location, while others do perfectly well with a good online program. This website offers free online GED classes to help you determine whether online learning is right for you.

If it is, just move on with Onsego’s Online GED Prep Program, an accredited, full-scope course that the publisher of the GED Test, GED Testing Service, qualifies as “Entirely GED Exam-Aligned.”

The GED exam has four subtests (independent modules) in

• Math
• Science
• English Language
• Social Studies

These modules can be taken separately and in the desired order.

The HiSET® has two literacy tests (reading and writing), so five in total, but these tests can be taken separately, too.

In the past, there was no online testing option. Applicants had to show up at an official Pennsylvania test center.

This has now changed, however, with the launch of HiSET and GED online proctored exams. Check below, at the bottom of this page, for more details.

If you’re looking for more information about passing scores, Pennsylvania qualification requirements, or testing fees, go to The GED Test In Pennsylvania.

Introducing Online Proctored GED and HiSET Testing

HiSET or GED testing was, until recently, never possible over the Internet. The exams had to be dealt with in person at one of Pennsylvania’s official state-approved testing facilities. But now, we witnessed the introduction of online proctored HiSET and GED tests as well.

For more information on the HiSET online proctored exam, check out the following post: ‘Welcoming the online HiSET test, and to get informed about the recently introduced online GED testing option, go to ‘Welcoming online proctored GED testing.’
