Common Questions
Any Indiana resident who is 18 years of age and older can enroll in NEO’s adult education program. Students who are 16 or 17 may also enroll IF they have a signed Exit Interview from their previous school. Certain documents are required for the HSE test.
A few years ago, the state of Indiana replaced the GED (General Education Diploma) with the HSE (High School Equivalency). So yes, you can earn your GED at NEO, it just goes by a different name now.
It depends! Every student is different. The length of time you are a NEO student depends on a few things:
1. Your goal(s)
2. Your attendance
3. The commitment you give to studying
We believe that the best education happens in the right environment, with the right leaders. NEO offers classes taught by highly qualified instructors that are truly teacher-led. Computer courses are a portion of a student’s educational plan, but we know the importance of learning with a teacher and peers in the classroom. NEO also has English as a second language and citizenship classes.
