<prompt> Human: Obvious throw away here. This takes place in the USA.I have a situation im not sure how to deal with, ill try and make it a simple as possible. I wasnt to sure where to post this, please direct me to the appropriate place if this is the wrong one.Ive landed a great job last year, the whole nine yards including tuition reimbursement. Now i never went to college, i honestly never really planned on it. But with full tuition reimbursement, i feel like i need to go back and get some kind of degree. My job even encourages it. I wont be able to move up in the company without at least an associates.Now i did pretty decent in high school up until my senior year. My senior year i ended up missing a lot of school and ended up failing the last semester of math. This was discussed with the guidance counselor and i was able to sign up for a program through mail where i could earn the extra half credit of math. I ended up still graduating with a 2.8 gpa and doing this math program that consisted of me mailing in work and tests for about 3 months to gain the credit. Everything was said and done. Ive gone the last 7 years thinking i have a high school diploma. Turns out, i never received that half credit. Luckily i found this out by talking to the school myself instead of a college asking for my transcripts. Ive already tried fighting this but i do not have any documentation to support my side.I see my only option as to get my GED. Then going and getting a degree with the college tuition reimbursement. But my fear is my work finding out i lied on my application. I dont know ifhow a college could tell my work i only have a GED instead of HS diploma. I dont know how much my work and a college would communicate together. I guess that is essentially my question, can my work find out from the college since i would be using college tuition reimbursement?Any advice would be greatly appreciated at this point, im unsure of what actions to take.  <response>: I have my GED, I was sick of school and dropped out at 16, got my GED the next week. Notice on employment applications it says high school diploma or equivalent? Get the GED, and quietly forget this happened. After you do a semester in college, high school diplomas are overridden by some college. Relax, youll be fine!
