COAM best course of action

Cheated in a class. Teacher had proof. She has my confession for cheating. I’m not concerned too much even if I get an E. I can tank the hit.

I have a couple of questions:

1) How much will a first time COAM offense affect major application? My overall GPA will be fine unless they look at major gpa specifically. 2) Will they check other classes? FYI: I DID not cheat in any other class, but I don’t wanna get into unnecessary complications. 3) Does COAM have access to previous records that have nothing to do with cheating in class? I have two charges for alcohol related cases. (I quit alcohol entirely). 4) If they can see it is my third offense as a student in general, I might get expelled. If I am expelled, can I still transfer to other schools?

Thanks in advance, and hopefully at the very least I can continue at OSU without having to drop out.

I know I’m fucked over right now, and honestly I’m trying my hardest to keep moving forward right now. My grades themselves are not a problem. The biggest concern is getting expelled.
