What We Offer
GED classes are taught by highly qualified instructors and empower you to accomplish your educational goals! Each GED course is customized to what you need based on the initial testing, so you can focus your time on the skills you need.
The GED stands for the “General Educational Development” Exam. This is an exam students may take if they didn’t finished high school and they would like to show they still have those same skills in English, Social Studies, Math, & Science. Note: you will take four separate tests (one for each subject area) that together make up the entire GED exam.
MCC offers a course to prepare students for all four subjects of the GED, based on level. A student may take the course multiple times to prepare for each subject level exam. Depending on ability, students will take from one session to four sessions or more to earn their GED. For more detailed information about the exam, please visit the GED website.
Your GED staff/instructor will help you schedule your exam through the MCC Testing Center when it is time. The practices tests can be taken at home, but the actual exam will have to be monitored at the Testing Center.
IT IS MANDATORY THAT YOU BRING YOUR GOVERNMENT ID, failure to do so will result in having to reschedule the exam for an additional fee.
All classes are taught in English.
You must enroll by the deadline in order to attend a course. Stop by the GED/ESL office to pick up the necessary paperwork on the Fort Morgan Campus (Cottonwood Hall, CO 120A).

By choosing to take a GED course, you agree to arrive to all classes on time, complete the assigned work, take the GED exam, and not miss more than 5 days in each class.
Stop by the Fort Morgan Campus, your closest Center Location, or contact the GED staff (below) to get the forms
When your paperwork is received, an advisor will contact you to help set up your GED.com account either by phone or in person.
All GED students are required to take one practice test in two subject areas prior to the start of classes. These tests determine your course placement and the skills you need to focus on.
The practice tests can be taken online from the convenience of your home or you can visit any MCC location to use a computer.
After you complete your testing, an email will be sent to schedule your final appointment to complete any paperwork and prepare you for the start of the semester, review your test results, and discuss class placement. Based on the practice test results, if you are ready to take the official GED exam in some/all of the subject areas the Advisor will help to schedule the exam.
Attend the course and receive instruction and practice in the skills you need based on your practice test results. While in the course you will take another practice test in the subjects you have not completed to see if you are ready to take the official exam or if you need to re-enroll for further study and instruction.
When your practice tests show you are ready for the GED exam in a particular subject, an Advisor will schedule your official GED exam. The GED exam must be taken at the Testing Center on the Fort Morgan Campus or an online exam through GED.com at a MCC location, as each test requires a GED official to monitor all tests. It is very important that you schedule this exam through the nearest MCC location or the GED program personnel.
YOU MUST BRING A GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID or the exam will have to be rescheduled and you will have to pay an additional fee. The first exam in each subject area is provided free of charge through the GED program at MCC.

Yes, you will still need to go through our enrollment process so that we have your most up-to-date personal information.
The Hyflex option allows students to attend class in-person most days. If a student is sick or can’t physically come to class for other reasons, they can join the class at the scheduled time via Zoom. If a student chooses the virtual-only option, they can only attend online via Zoom during the class time but cannot attend in-person.
For GED classes, if students take the first 4 weeks of classes and pass all subject tests (i.e. finish the GED), they are no longer obligated to attend classes for the last 3 weeks. If students need more prep time, they can stay for the full 7 weeks. By the 7th week, students will be asked to sign up to take subject tests.
GED courses require students to attend during the scheduled times, do the homework, and participate to the best of their ability. Students are allowed to miss up to 5 days of class for family situations, emergencies, etc.
Enrolling in the GED program is making a full commitment to your education.
Unfortunately, MCC doesn’t currently offer GED classes taught in Spanish. MCC hopes to offer more options to our community in the future!
MCC offers Hybrid GED classes so students are able to attend in-person or virtually via Zoom. For students who aren’t able to attend class in-person on the Fort Morgan campus, they can attend all classes virtually via Zoom. Zoom is an online, web conferencing software that allows students to attend class using a computer, laptop, or cell phone. Zoom does require access to a stable internet connection. Students can reach out to your local MCC location in Burlington, Limon (also serving the Bennett area) or Wray to use an MCC computer lab.
The practice tests used to determine a plan of study for the GED course can be taken online from the convenience of home or at the nearest MCC location. Students can use MCC computers and internet.
For the official GED exam, students must contact one of the MCC locations listed below PRIOR to the test date to schedule the test.
Students can come to the Fort Morgan campus to do your GED official exam through the Testing Center or you can do the Online GED Exam that is monitored by a GED official at the nearest MCC location in Burlington, Limon (also serving the Bennett area) or Wray.
