A large-scale cheating scheme on college entrance exams was uncovered by the FBI and federal prosecutors in Boston, according to court documents unsealed on Tuesday.

Actresses, CEOs and unnamed college coaches "allegedly paid bribes of up to $6 million to get their children into elite colleges" federal prosecutors said, per ABC News.

According to a report by NBC News, the alleged scheme "focused on getting students admitted to elite universities as recruited athletes, regardless of their athletic abilities, and helping potential students cheat on their college exams, according to the indictment. The plot involved students who attended or were seeking to attend Georgetown University, Stanford University, UCLA, the University of San Diego, USC, University of Texas, Wake Forest, and Yale, according to federal prosecutors."

Among those of the 47 people charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud include Hollywood actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin. Huffman, 56, is best known for her role as Lynette Scavo on the ABC TV series Desperate Housewives while Loughlin, 54, played Aunt Becky on Full House.

ABC News reports:

The documents say actress Lori Loughlin -- best known for her role as Aunt Becky on the ABC sitcom "Full House" -- and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, "agreed to pay bribes totaling $500,000 in exchange for having their two daughters designated as recruits to the USC crew team -- despite the fact that they did not participate in crew -- thereby facilitating their admission to USC."

Bribery charges are nothing new regarding college entry requirements, the selection process and collegiate athletics.

Earlier this week, Auburn assistant coach Ira Bowman was fingered as a participant in a scheme that led to bribes to get a player on the basketball roster at Penn University in 2015, according to testimony by former Penn head coach Jerome Allen.

Per Auburn Undercover, former Penn head coach Jerome Allen admitted Friday he accepted about $300,000 in bribes from Philip Esformes to get his son, Morris, on the Quakers' basketball team. Allen testified Bowman, then an assistant at Penn, knew of the scheme and was later involved after Allen was fired as head coach in 2015.
