It's out of your hands at this stage. With that in mind, petty theft is a crime of moral turpitude, and if convicted it will really hurt your school/employment aspirations. You should talk to a lawyer, who may be able to work out a deal with the Judge whereby you can earn yourself a dismissal.

Well, you will have to go to court if you were cited. There are ways you can probably earn a dismissal.
