In order to participate in MIT xPRO, you must agree to the Honor Code below and any additional terms specific to a course or program.

By enrolling in an MIT xPRO course or program, I agree that I will:

Complete all tests and assignments on my own, unless collaboration on an assignment is explicitly permitted.
Maintain only one user account and not let anyone else use my username and/or password.
Not utilize generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Bard, or Bing Chat) to complete assignments. If you are unsure whether or not a tool is considered generative AI–please consult the instructor prior to using the technology or completing your assignment.
Not engage in any activity that would dishonestly improve my results, or improve or hurt the results of others.
Not post answers to problems that are being used to assess learner performance.

Termination of your use of the MIT xPRO Site.
Additional actions may be taken at the sole discretion of MIT.

No refunds will be issued in the case of any corrective action for such violations.

Honor Code violations will be determined at the sole discretion of MIT. You will be notified if a determination has been made that you have violated this Honor Code and you will be informed of the corresponding action to be taken as a result of the violation.
