This study aimed to examine the effect of academic stress and religiosity on academic dishonesty among students at private Islamic universities in Indonesia. As many as 277 students participated in this study. Data collection tools use The Academic Stress Inventory, The Centrality of Religiosity Scale insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CRS); 15, and The Academic Dishonesty Scale. Data analysis used multiple regression analysis to see the effect of two independent variables on one independent variable. The results showed that the hypothesis we proposed was accepted, namely that there was an effect of academic stress and religiosity on academic dishonesty. The effect value is 0.080, or about 8%.
