Missouri Option Program - Online student enrollment and “Application to Test” authorization

Note:  This document is provided to assist Missouri Option Schools with the enrollment of eligible students to take the High School Competency exam (GED test) as an element required to qualify for a high school diploma.


 

Training for Submitting "Application to Test" Forms

The Department's GED Section created a webinar to train MO Options Program staff about the process for submitting "application to test" forms.


 

Annual Report

Participating schools are no longer required to submit an annual report for the Missouri Option Program, as the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) now gathers the information needed from MOSIS and Core Data.
