Making the Grade

A young man, burdened by debt, takes on a new identity to attend an exclusive boarding school, hoping to earn a diploma and pay off his loan to a dubious creditor, all while living out of a dilapidated vehicle.

In the movie, a wealthy student hires a street-smart individual to attend school in his place, while he enjoys his time in Europe. However, things become complicated when the substitute student falls in love with a preppy girl, which leads to tension with the school bully. Meanwhile, the hired student's past catches up with him in the form of a bookie and his own employer returns earlier than expected, causing the scheme to unravel.
