ASPIRE HSE CLASSES Aspire High School Equivalency (HSE) Classes

Aspire HSE classes are FREE to adult students who need to prepare for a High School Equivalency test (GED® or HiSET®), get ready to go to college or an adult certificate-training program, gain employment, or enhance workplace skills.

Classes are offered at many convenient locations.

Before starting HSE classes, all students must attend an information session at our Scarlet Oaks campus located at

100 Scarlet Oaks Drive, Cincinnati, OH 45241. Consistent classroom attendance is required.

Students who are 16, 17, or 18 years old must have official withdrawal documentation from their home district or evidence of a high school diploma. Documentation of official withdrawal from school must be submitted prior to enrollment—call (513) 612-5806. Valid government-issued photo ID or passport required at check-in.

Children under 16 years of age are not permitted in Great Oaks buildings at any time unless they are current Great Oaks high school students. Adult students will need to make child care arrangements as they may not bring children to class or have them wait in the buildings or in cars.
