Loughlin, 56, choked up as she apologised to U.S. District Judge Nathaniel Gorton in Boston for the 'awful decision' she made to help her daughters gain an 'unfair advantage' in the college admissions process and get into their preferred school.
"I am truly, profoundly and deeply sorry, and I need to face the consequences and make amends," she said during a hearing held via videoconference because of the coronavirus pandemic.
"We can only hope that you will spend the rest of your charmed life, as you've said you will, making amends for the system that you have harmed," he said. The parents include actress Felicity Huffman, who received a 14-day prison sentence for paying to rig her daughter's college entrance exam. An insurance and private equity executive, Mark Hauser, on Friday became the latest parent to cut a plea deal.
