US actress Felicity Huffman has pleaded guilty to fraudulently conspiring to win a college place for her daughter.
In a Boston court, the Desperate Housewives star admitted paying $15,000 (£11,500) to have her daughter's exam answers secretly corrected in 2017.
In a statement last month, she said she was in "full acceptance" of her guilt.
Prosecutors have recommended a four-month prison term and a $20,000 fine. Huffman, 56, was among 50 charged in the college admissions scandal.
