I have a college question?

Would it be possible to get accepted into a state college with a GED ? I am 20 years old with a GED and college has very recently become an option for me financially, and I want to take full advantage of the opportunity I was given.I have lived my whole life in both middle school and high school knowing I would never be able to to go to college, so i always completely ignored college talk and as a result, I know very little of how college works and how getting accepted is done. I have always done very well on all of my test and exams, but was never motivated as a child to do the work.The laziness as a child is no longer present and the adult in me has arose.I am very excited and very motivated.So my question in completion would be, is it possible to get accepted into a state college and how exactly would this be done? Sorry for the lack of knowledge.Your help is greatly appreciated
