At my son’s school you would get a suspension for that and you would be required to write to your colleges telling them about it. One more violation and you would be dismissed (euphemism for expelled). Be glad you are not at a prep school. I am not certain how much it affects admissions. It is definitely a strike against you, especially at the most competitive schools, but it wouldn’t necessarily be a dealbreaker.
