>applications require a student signature or electronic affirmation to the accuracy of their submission

Yes. I fail to understand all these people stating that it was not the fault of the students. They lied on their applications. It is akin to being asked at an airport if you packed your bags yourself.

These students signed a legally binding affirmation that the information they submitted was accurate (and sometimes a statement that they completed the application without assistance), and, thusly, they are as equally guilty of fraud as their parents.
