What happens if you DO plagiarize?

• They will decide if you plagiarized by accident or if it was intentional.
• Your instructor gets to decide what happens to your assignment grade and whether you get any second chances.
• The Office of Student Conduct will keep a record of your plagiarism. If you plagiarize multiple times, you could lose your student status.
• You can appeal a charge of plagiarism. See the Code of Student Conduct for instructions.
