Special Accommodations to Write the GED Tests.

Special accommodations are available if you have specific learning and/or physical disabilities. To qualify and receive approval from the Chief Examiner of British Columbia you must submit a completed copy of the Request for Special Accommodations of Standard GED Test Administration form to the GED Testing Service in Victoria. The GED Testing Service in Victoria will forward a request for accommodations because of special learning disabilities to the GED in Washington, D.C. for their approval.

IN ORDER TO VALIDATE THE REQUEST, SUPPORTING MEDICAL DOCUMENTATION AND/OR A SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS MUST ACCOMPANY THE REQUEST FOR SPECIAL ACCOMMODATIONS FORM.

The Request for Special Accommodations to the Standard GED Test Administration form is available from the GED Examiner at your local community college or at the following website: www.bced.gov.bc.ca/ged
The form must be sent to the GED Administrator, in Victoria, along with your application form and fees. Any request submitted without the appropriate application form and fees will be returned.

Due to the time required to review these cases, examinees requesting special needs accommodations must submit their application form, writing fees, special needs form, and medical documentation to the GED Testing Service at least SIX WEEKS PRIOR to the writing date.
