Where The University of Alabama stands on AI

The school's published guidance, in plain terms. The line is authorship, not tooling.

What is allowed

Research, brainstorming and feedback on your own drafts. Using a tool to understand a prompt or to check your writing is not what the policy is aimed at.

What is not

Submitting text you did not write. The application asks for your voice, and a generated essay is a misrepresentation under the same rule that covers a ghostwritten one.

How it is read

Readers judge the file, not a detector score. An essay that sounds like nobody in particular is the failure mode, whatever produced it.
