8. Academic Misconduct
Indiana University treats Academic Misconduct very seriously. Academic Misconduct means any form of cheating.
For example, if you are seen:
using an internet page other than the exam,
looking at a neighbor’s screen,
using any kind of electronic device,
you will receive one warning card.
At all times during the test, you CANNOT open another Internet page. Your computer screen should always show the test. Also, you should keep your eyes on your own screen, and you are NOT allowed to use any kind of electronic device during the test.

9. Academic Misconduct
Please remember that you will receive only ONE warning. If any academic misconduct occurs after one warning, a report of your actions will be filed with the university.
Again, cheating will NEVER be tolerated. ANY form of cheating will be filed with the university after one warning.

10. Test results
Your test results will be reported to your advisors on the same day that you test.
On the basis of those results, English support classes may be required – SLST classes for undergraduates and graduates.
