I think, without Ozpin's interference, it is absolutely implausible. On the other hand, if Jaune has a lot more money that the show has let on (possible, if his family comes from a long line of heroes), it IS a bit more plausible, given the prevalent and extensive criminal network in Remnant. Look at Junior, for example - I'd say if anyone has the resources to fake someone into Beacon, it'd be that ol' bear. Er, young bear. That possibility combined with Ozpin's interference, though, could very likely be what lead to the established canon.
