academic dishonesty advice?

[blg94]

hello. i know i shouldnt be posting the same threads and all, but i just wanted to gain more opinions, especially from BGO's and grads. i posted this in USMA's thread, but i am also a navy candidate (without a nom yet).

hi all. i am a triple qualified candidate with a nom. this week, my ap chemistry teacher and i had a talk about one of my homework assignments. i took previous textbook work and replaced the title with a newly assigned chapter name and problems, and turned it in. we both talked privately, i apologized, and gave our views. i tried to compromise with him, but what he states is true: there's a system and he has to follow it.
For our first offense, we receive a 0 for the assignment, get our final semester grade lowered by a letter grade, and i believe it goes on our academic record (not transcript)

obviously, i feel bummed b/c of this stupid mistake and i realize that at the academies and as officers, i can't do this ever again. i feel lost.

my questions are:
what should i do at this point?
should i notify admissions and my MOC?
how badly will this hinder me in admissions?

again, thank you for any advice.

There's no affirmative obligation to notify anyone at this point. If you receive an appointment, I believe you will be asked to disclose any character issues. That will be the time and opportunity to discuss this. Could it affect your appointment (if you receive one)? Absolutely. However, whether and how is beyond the scope of what anyone here can tell you.
