Cheats who take exams or write essays on behalf of university students could be jailed for two years if the Morrison government wins the next election.

Federal Education Minister Dan Tehan is also threatening university cheats with fines of up to $210,000.

"If you write another person's university essay that's cheating and you're ripping off other hard-working students and also undermining our world-class education system," Mr Tehan said on Sunday.
