Plagiarism is a felony in many states and countries. We haven’t heard of students being severely punished with jail, but in theory, you could be fined with thousands of dollars.
Even if that doesn’t happen, your college or university can have you expelled on the charges of plagiarism. If you plagiarized an MA or Ph.D. thesis, your degree can be revoked years after you got it.
You don’t want plagiarism in your content!
