High School Student Denied Her Diploma Over $15 Laptop Repair Fee From Her Freshman Year

A Nebraska high school student said she didn’t get her diploma at graduation because of an unpaid $15 laptop repair fee.

Ellie McCormick revealed the upsetting moment in a viral TikTok she posted, where the graduate held up a pink-colored paper demanding her to pay up.

“Your diploma has been pulled until you have paid your laptop repair fee. Please see the amount below…,” part of the pink slip read.

At the very bottom of the paper, the graduate’s full name was shown next to “$15 fee – Laptop Repair” in all caps.

“Bro they tell you this throughout highschool any unpaid fees and you won’t receive your diploma pretty simple to understand,” someone commented.

“Just pay the $15 shorty and move on,” another person wrote.
