<p>rhshanks - what we are telling you is that you don’t need to physically hand a high school diploma to ANYBODY to start school. You are admitted while you are still in high school; if you have a good record, they assume that you’re going to graduate in time. They admit you, and then ask your school to send a final transcript just to ensure you didn’t suddenly flunk out. </p>
