Tbf it costs $5-20 to submit official transcripts. Paying an amount to qualify for an interview for a position may be too much.

I understand what you’re inferring, just official transcripts aren’t free or easy enough.

I guess they were printing their grades and then fat fingering them to inflate their grades. I get your point, but it drives home how people can cheat if there’s a way. Probably the employer could fork over the fees to verify the grades would rectify most of this.
