Representing the work of others to be one's own.
Facilitating the dishonesty of others.
Copying from another person's test.
Using unauthorized materials.
Taking an examination for another or permitting another to take an exam for you.

Removing or attempting to remove a test, any portion of it, or its answers from the Testing Center.

Consistent with Bellevue University's Academic Honor Code, individuals suspected of engaging in these behaviors will be referred to the Dean of Students and their instructor for appropriate disciplinary action. CLEP and DSST customers will be reported to the appropriate examination agency.
