GED=Degree
With the Warren County Career Center offering more testing times to help people earn their high school equivalency degree, I would encourage anyone who was unable to get their diploma for whatever reason to seriously consider applying for this program.
According to the U.S. Dept. of Education, individuals with a GED or High School Diploma have a 33-percent higher earning capacity in their lifetime than those who dropped out of high school and do not have their GED.
There is a fee to take the test, but the Career Center offers a waiver for those who take the practice test at ABLE. At that time, the GED test can be scheduled by contacting Warren County Career Center Adult Education at 513-932-8145.
The evening tests are on two nights, usually the second Monday and Tuesday of every month from 5 to 9 p.m. The morning tests are approximately every six weeks from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday at the TEC Center on the main campus. Candidates must attend both Monday and Tuesday. More information and test dates can be found here.

Actually, GED=diploma. Degrees are granted only by colleges. High schools award diplomas.
