Fifteen cadets were expelled from the Air Force Academy in a cheating scandal and three others resigned, school commanders said Tuesday.

Thirteen others were placed on probation.

The cadets, all freshman, either confessed or were found guilty by an honor board of sharing answers to a test of knowledge about the Air Force. Academy officials said the cadets forwarded test answers through an Internet social group and private computer messages.

The school had disclosed the investigation in February.

Nine other cadets who were accused of cheating were cleared.
