What is a high school equivalency on the college application?
A high school equivalency or HSE is a recognized alternative to a high school diploma. There are three common exams used to determine high school equivalency:
The General Educational Development (GED®) test
The High School Equivalency Test (HiSET)
The Test Assessing Secondary Completion (TASC)
