The UGA Student Honor Code: I will be academically honest in all of my academic work and will not tolerate academic dishonesty of others.

Every student must agree to abide by UGA's academic honesty policy and procedures known as A Culture of Honesty, when applying for admission to the University of Georgia. A Culture of Honesty and the University of Georgia Student Honor Code work together to define a climate of academic honor and integrity at the University. All members of the University Community have a responsibility to uphold and maintain an honest academic environment and to report when dishonesty occurs. Where suspected violations of the academic honesty policy occur, appropriate procedures are designed to protect the academic process and integrity while ensuring due process. The University's academic honesty system is an academic process founded on educational opportunities.

The VP for Instruction's Office of Student Academic Services is responsible for managing the University's academic honesty process, ensuring that information related to the academic honesty policy is available to the faculty and students, and providing support for the UGA Student Academic Honesty Council.

Students who have questions about the University's academic honesty policy and procedures should contact the coordinator at (706) 542-4336 or by e-mail at: honesty@uga.edu. Students and faculty will benefit by reading the full academic honesty policy. A Culture of Honesty.
