🏗️ Earn Your U.S. High School Diploma Equivalent for Free
Many career paths, training programs, and college opportunities in the United States are only open to those who hold a high school diploma. For some working adults and new immigrants, completing high school can be difficult because of language barriers, job responsibilities, or life transitions.
The HiSET® (High School Equivalency Test) provides a practical way to earn a credential that is recognized as equivalent to a U.S. high school diploma. By completing subject tests in math, science, social studies, reading, and writing, learners can demonstrate the knowledge and skills expected of high school graduates.
This pathway is especially helpful for working people and immigrants because it allows flexible study schedules that can fit around work and family life. Preparation can be done through self-study or in-person classes, and most community colleges offer free HiSET preparation courses that can be completed in just a few months.
The HiSET credential is accepted by employers, community colleges, universities, and training programs across the United States. It can open the door to better employment, career growth, and higher education.
If your children are still of school age, obtaining a high school diploma online is also a good option. Many accredited programs provide flexible schedules and personalized learning paths that help students study from home while earning an official diploma recognized by colleges and employers.
Each state has its own eligibility requirements, test fees, and registration process, so it is important to review local guidelines. For official information and resources, visit hiset.org
