Age

Minimum age
Not confirmedThe GED.com Florida page states no general minimum age, only 16/17 requirements. A web search snippet cites Section 1003.435(4), F.S. (18 on the exam date) from FLDOE pages, but the FLDOE page (https://www.fldoe.org/academics/career-adult-edu/hse/underage-testing-info.stml) returned HTTP 403 and could not be read, so 18 is not confirmed.
Under the minimum age
16- and 17-year-olds must file a formal declaration of intent to terminate school enrollment under Section 1003.21(1)(c), Florida Statutes, and submit a signed, notarized Underage Testing Form. They must not already hold a high school diploma or equivalent and must be unenrolled from any accredited high school.Source: ged.com, checked 2026-10-10
