What Is the Regents Exam. The Regents is a series of exams administered in New York to high school students. To earn their Regents Diploma, students must pass at least five different Regents exams with a grade of 65 or better. (This is in addition to earning the required number of credits by completing courses.) Students have about three hours long to complete most Regents exams.
1 A local school district may award a student a Regents diploma with honors or a Regents diploma with advanced designation with honors to a student who achieves an average of 90 percent in all Regents examinations required for the diploma. Students first entering grade nine in 1984 or before shall earn at least 16 units of credit or their equivalent, as determined by the commissioner, to receive a local high school diploma, and 18 units of credit or their equivalent, as determined by the commissioner, to receive a Regents high school diploma.
