Statement about Cheating

You are on your honor not to cheat during your exam. Cheating means:

  • Looking up any answer or part of an answer in a textbook or on the Internet, or using any other source to find the answer.
  • Copying and pasting or in any way copying responses or parts of responses from any other source into your online test. This includes but is not limited to copying and pasting from other documents or spreadsheets, whether written by yourself or anyone else.
  • Asking anyone else to assist you by whatever means available while you take the exam.
  • Copying any part of the exam to share with other students.
  • Telling your mentor that you need another attempt at the exam because your connection to the Internet was interrupted when that is not true.

If there is evidence that you have cheated in your exam, the exam will be declared invalid, and you will fail the course.

The College also reserves the right to submit essay answers (where required) to a checking service to check for plagiarism. If plagiarism is detected, you will also be given a failing grade.

Please also note that the exam is time-limited. That means you only have the allotted time in which to complete the exam. If you exceed the time limit on the exam, you will be penalized by having two points deducted for every minute that you exceed the time limit. This may also result in your failing the course.
