Are there any exceptions to the 2.5 G.P.A./2480 G.E.D. minimum composite score?
No. Understand though, that the high school and college G.P.A.s are independent of one another. If your high school G.P.A. was under 2.5 but you’ve had at least 16 hours of college credit and your college G.P.A. is 2.5 or higher, you’re eligible. By the same token, if your college G.P.A. is under 2.5 but your high school G.P.A. was 2.5 or higher, you’re eligible. A G.E.D. minimum composite score of at least 2480 is also independent of any G.P.A.s, and would also make you eligible.
