I was arrested for theft; they let me leave and filed me for a court date on August 22, 2013. I leave for college August 23, 2013. Iโm 18 and people who I have known who have got caught for stealing always went to a class and had to pay fees.
Suggest you get a good criminal lawyer to look into this for you. Classes normally are for traffic cases not theft but there could be something for you. Ask your lawyer.
Besides the Consumer Awareness class, you can expect to do community service. You can take the class ahead of time, so you have that done before you leave for college.
You may be eligible for pre-trial intervention. If you are accepted into the program, they may allow you to take classes and do community service where you attend college, but his is not automatic.
