I was dumbfounded when I saw the result online. There must be something wrong."

Liang Jipeng, a high school student in Pingyao, Shanxi province, said after he discovered that his online college application had been altered. He was given a place at Shihezi University in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, even though Liang had not placed the school on his list. On Tuesday, police detained a classmate, surnamed Liu, who allegedly said he altered Liang's list as a prank. The school had suggested students use the same passwords in case they forget theirs. According to local authorities, the investigation is ongoing.
