Well, I think the best thing you can do now is to go to a few college info nights at schools you are interested in and ask the admissions counselors their opinion. If you give schools the impression that you intend to earn a HS diploma and then do not do so, they will rescind you. If you tell them ahead of time you intend to get a GED, then they may not accept you in the first place. Call around and ask the admissions people. Maybe it isn’t as big a deal as we think it is here on CC. Report back with your findings.
