Need a copy of your GED transcript or replacement diploma?

Under the Family Educational Rights to Privacy Act of 1974, KYAE cannot provide scores or pass/fail information by phone.  To verify a GED, you must request an official transcript.  Since a fee is assessed and we do not accept credit cards, we cannot honor verbal, fax or e-mail requests.

There are three ways to obtain a copy of your transcript or replacement diploma:

1.  Download the request form, located to the right, and submit to KYAE.

2.  Submit a written request.

3.  Pick up your record in person.

All requests require the same information and the same process:

• The full name under which you tested;
• Social Security number;
• Date of birth;
• The approximate year of testing;
• The name of the testing center or the city or county in which the testing center is located;
• Your signature (KYAE cannot process the request without your signature); and 
• Address for mailing the document (include a complete mailing address).

• Indicate the number of transcripts you need.
• There is a $5 non-refundable fee for processing a record request which includes one transcript if there is a record. 
• There is a $5 fee for each additional transcript request. 
• You may also request a replacement diploma.  The fee is $25, limit one diploma. 
• Enclose a money order payable to the KY State Treasurer.  Personal checks and credit cards are not accepted.

If you are requesting your transcript/diploma to be sent to an employer or postsecondary institution, you must provide a signed GED Release of Records Consent form along with the above completed GED Transcript and Diploma Replacement Request form, follow the instructions and return it to the address below.
