Is there any way that you can take the GED? That is the equivalent to a high school diploma.

Nope... I've seen one grandma in TV... going back to high school... there's no age limit in learning... right?

I believe that there is no limit on age as long as you still want to learn

No, At 25 you can not return to high school. After the age of 21 students are automatically released from the schools record & asked to leave the schools programs. I myself dropped out but wanted to continue my education, As for what was said above about a GED - No, a GED is NOT the equivalent to a high school diploma, It is a grade under. I am currently attending a Technical College in my area to obtain my GED, AFTER YOU GET YOUR GED you need to apply for a HOPE Scholarship or PELL Grant & They will pay for you to take 5 classes to equal up to 22 quarterly hours- After you have completeled your GED Tests & finished the 5 classes then you will be on the same level as a high school diploma. I am having to go through the same thing right now.
