Alternative for high school diploma?
Long story short, I'm 21 years old, enlisting in the Marine Corps. My parents have my high school diploma but won't give it to me because they do not support my decision to join the Marines.
I had to buy a new social security card and birth certificate, but can I bring something other than a high school diploma to MEPS to prove I graduated?

Have you tried going to the high school you graduated from to see if they can get you a copy?

Sometimes original documents are lost/destroyed or otherwise unavailable. I'm sure recruiters routinely deal with this situation. You may have to get the copy notarized which will be an additional expense. I used a notarized copy of my birth certificate to get a passport.
Good luck and let us know how this works out as others may have the same problem.

What they put in your SRB is a copy of your diploma, so I'm sure that a copy will work just fine. It's not going to have to be the exact one you got 3 years ago - you just have to have one.
