Fears of plagiarism crisis as probe finds foreign university students
‘cheats’

   Those from outside EU more than four times more likely to be dishonest

   FOREIGN students are claimed to be fuelling a surge in plagiarism at
   British universities amid fears of a cheating crisis.

   Almost 50,000 students have been caught cheating on exams in the past
   three
   years, with those from outside the EU more than four times as likely to
   be
   dishonest.

   A probe by The Times found 75 per cent of Queen Mary University of
   London
   postgrad plagiarists were from overseas.

   Kent University topped the league table with a total of 1,947 cheating
   students across three years.

   Geoffrey Alderman, of Buckingham University, said: “Cheating using a
   bespoke
   essay-writing service is increasing.”
