    How can I get my diploma
    I finish high school but didn't get to receive my diploma because I didn't pass 1 task test. I have all my credits and passed all my classes so my Question is how can I get a diploma without having to take classes. The same thing happened to a close friend of mine and she paid to get a diploma. So do anyone know here I can go to do the same??

    Ask your close friend how she did it. Or talk with the principal. I've never heard of a student paying money to get a diploma, so am not sure what your friend did. Be sure it's a proper diploma, or you will have trouble getting jobs after high school. Can you fishing what you need by going to summer school?

    if she "paid" one of those fake dipolma places, it is not worth the paper it is printed on.

    you get it by talking to your school, and doing what they require.
    if you did not pass all the classes or complete all requirements, then you did not pass and did not graduate.

    if you graduated, what you need is the transcript anyway, the actual dipoma has no value in looking for jobs. They need the transcrpts.

    It would be pretty sad if someone were able to pay for a high school diploma....or even "had" to pay to get one. Where are you located, as that may make a difference as to how things are done. Could it be that your friend had to pay a fee to retake something?

    Most often a student would need to complete what is missing, or what needs to be repeated, in summer school or night school. Maybe all you would need to do is retake the task test. Certainly contact the school to find out what your options are for obtaining your diploma.

    There are dozens of high school diploma web sites that for 300 or 400 consider your "life" experience and find you deserve one.

    Have not seen any of those here for a while.

    I was sort of expecting this to turn into one. With another new poster, telling them where to get one.

    So you take that class you failed over again... then you can get your diploma. If you had all your credits... and passed all your classes like you claimed... you would have graduated and gotten it.

    It shouldn't be that difficult or take that long. And you relly don't want to delay....the longer you wait the harder it will be as you will forget some of the information you have learned.

    It would however help if you told us what country and state you attended school. THis is an international site and there isn't a universal answer that would apply to everyone the same.

    Your friend might have paid for a GED course. She might have just taken the test. If you just recently graduated you need to go back to your school and talk to the guidance counselor or administrator.
