Beginning Thursday, Aug. 1, students may pre-register at any one of Central Arizona College’s nine locations. GED classes will be divided into two eight-week periods and are currently provided at no cost for Arizona residents.
On Jan. 1, the GED exam will change to a computer-based test aligned with the Common Core Standards.
