N2  - Academic dishonesty is no longer an isolated issue but has developed into global
concern. Significantly, statistical findings reported by recent studies show an increasing
occurrence of cheating as compared to yesteryears. This study investigated college
students? perceptions towards the prevalence of academic dishonesty at one of the
Malaysia colleges and examined college students? perceptions of acts of academic
dishonesty from various perspectives including the seriousness of academic dishonesty.
The study involved a total of 96 college students from different semesters and CGPAs.
The findings revealed that although the students generally have low prevalence of
academic dishonesty, a zero tolerance is expected to be found. Findings indicated
that cheating on quiz is more prevalence as compared to cheating on exam, cheating
on coursework and plagiarism. Thus, it is recommended that institution should work
collaboratively to facilitate student orientations and academic integrity to advocate
for the culture of academic integrity.
