Accused of cheating by gaining an academic advantage? Defense tips from a lawyer for students.
What is considered gaining an academic advantage?
Most colleges believe that any action that puts you in a better position than other students is gaining an academic advantage. This means that some of the following could fall under this category:
- Being absent for a test and asking a friend what was on it
- Having someone else edit a paper or your homework
- Working with another person to complete assigned work
How do I prove I wasn’t purposely absent on exam day?
If you believe the professor does not have any other evidence to support the cheating accusation, bring a note from a doctor with you. If you were sick and stopped by the health clinic then this could be one way of proving your innocence.
