A person admitted to the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Helsinki has lost their study place after cheating in the entrance exam. The information was reported by HBL and is now confirmed in the case.

The university says it will also submit a request for a police investigation. That moves the matter beyond an internal university decision and into the hands of law enforcement.

No further details have been made public about how the cheating was discovered or what the next steps will be. For now, the confirmed facts are that the study place has been withdrawn and the case will be referred to police.
