Newlane University is a community of learners committed to maintaining an environment that encourages personal and intellectual growth. It is a community with high standards and high expectations for those who choose to become a part of it, including established rules of conduct intended to foster behaviors that are consistent with a civil and educational setting. Members of the University community are expected to comply with all laws and University policies, conducting themselves in ways that support a scholarly environment, and reinforce the integrity of the platform in rigorously and reliably verifying mastery. Specifically, members of the Newlane community agree to adhere to the following core values: Be inclusive; Be considerate; Be respectful; Commit to Academic integrity; Don’t harass; and Make differences into strengths. You can learn more about our code of ethical conduct in your student handbook.

Please note that behavior plausibly meant to deceive another member of the university about your identity (e.g. submitting someone else’s writing or work as your own (i.e., plagiarism), having someone else complete your work, or completing someone else’s work, or having someone stand in for you in a degree or course hearing, or standing in for someone in a degree or course hearing), and/or any other behavior plausibly meant to cheat the platform in any assessment or project are grounds for dismissal. Also, inappropriate conduct such as racist, sexist, hate or other inflammatory speech or behavior directed towards Newlane University counselors, proctors or experts during assessments or counseling sessions are also grounds for dismissal. Furthermore, those engaging in inappropriate speech (see above) towards other students or counselors, proctors, or experts may be dismissed.
