The University operates a , by which all staff, students, postgraduate researchers and third parties, including prospective students, are expected to abide. The University reserves the right to withdraw an application if behaviours are deemed to have contravened this policy.
By submitting an application to the 映客直播, including via UCAS (Universities and Colleges Admissions Service), applicants are confirming that the information given is true, complete and accurate. At any point from the start of the application process, continuing through the offer stage and on to when an applicant becomes a student, applicants should not:
- leave out any requested or relevant information
- make any misrepresentation (for example, through plagiarism or the use of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools)
- provide false or misleading information or documents.
As a general principle, students at the University can use generative AI to help with learning but cannot use AI to generate or falsify work. This principle also applies within the admissions process, where the use of generative AI tools, including translation tools, to generate or falsify any part of an application is considered to be a misrepresentation by the applicant. This includes, but is not limited to, using AI to generate a personal statement or work sample, and using any AI tool within an interview. Further information on the University's policy on AI can be found in the . UCAS also provides a .
If the University is unable to verify any information and/or documentation provided, additional checks or information may be required. This may include being invited to an interview. Applicants must fully co-operate with this process within the timeframe provided.
If an applicant fails to meet any of their responsibilities, the University reserves the right to dismiss a current or future application, withdraw an offer of a place, withdraw a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) or visa sponsorship, revoke registration as a student and revoke an award. Whether an applicant has failed to meet their responsibilities is at the University's discretion.
The University may subscribe to a system that processes personal statements or research proposals in order to identify documents that show similarity. For example, applications made via UCAS are checked by the UCAS Similarity Detection Service.
Where potentially plagiarised material is identified by these systems, the University will review the case and decide whether to permit the applicant to submit a new personal statement or research proposal in support of their application. If this opportunity is not granted (or is not taken up by the applicant), the University reserves the right to reject or withdraw the application.
