Accused of cheating in college? Top 3 tips from a defense attorney for students.
Students who are accused of cheating in college may feel pressured to try and resolve the issue quickly. Before doing that, read these top 3 tips if you are accused of cheating.
- Be careful about what you say or write to university staff – Think before you speak. Does your defense make sense, is there any other information you should use to support your position.
- Read your student handbook – Look for the honor code of academic integrity section. This will outline the process you may face if a professor thinks you cheated.
- The university is not always your friend – anything you say or write in an attempt to make the situation go away may be used against you in an academic committee hearing.
