UC San Diego Academic Integrity Policy

Current Policy and Procedures

The UC San Diego Academic Integrity Policy (formerly the Policy on Integrity of Scholarship) is effective as of September 25, 2023 and applies to any cases originating on or after September 25, 2023.

The university expects both faculty and students to honor the policy. For students, this means that all academic work will be done by the individual to whom it's assigned, without unauthorized aid of any kind. If violations of academic integrity occur, the same Sanctioning Guidelines apply regardless of which policy was effective for that case.

For more information on how the policy is implemented, refer to the most current procedures.

Past Policy and Procedures

For cases that originated prior to September 25, 2023, refer to the previous policy and the previous procedures.
