Dozens of people in the U.S. have been charged in a college admissions scam that has rocked the country.
They are accused of conspiring with business tycoon to get their kids into elite colleges through bribery and cheating.
It's the biggest college admission scheme to be prosecuted by the Department of Justice.
At the heart of scam is William Rick Singer, CEO of college prep company called The Key.
He has admitted receiving nearly 25 million dollars from rich parents from 2011 to get students admitted as athletes - many having never played the sport they applied for.
Teachers and coaches were also believed to have been bribed to overlook cheating in SATs.
The colleges involved include Yale, Stanford and Georgetown, among others.
