Wayne,

It stands for General Education Development. It was originally a federal program intended to help WWII veterans who left for war prior to high school graduation. It's now mostly used by kids who quit high school due to a lack of interest or inability to pass the required courses. The program is also a way for "legal" immigrants to obtain a high school equivilent diploma.
