Colleges and universities in Georgia have increased their use of online education and as a result, college students can, unfortunately, often find themselves accused of academic misconduct involving their taking of an online exam or their submission of an online assignment. Allegations of this nature can vary. They can include plagiarism, unauthorized collaboration, using unauthorized resources such as internet resources or other tools to take the exam or assignment.
Professors are often quick to make an allegation without completing a full investigation or even interviewing a student. Schools can often also be in a rush to judgment. Defending against allegations of this nature requires a very careful analysis of the exam or the assignment, also what was submitted in response to determine exactly what happened and to also determine whether there's an alternative explanation to the allegation of academic misconduct.
Having an experienced attorney advisor will be your best ally to help you understand and navigate the process and to defend against allegations of this nature.
