it's generally a fine, possible community service and possibly attendance at drug and alcohol program.
Call if you have further questions at 201 261-6444 ext 101.
ps you will have an arrest record if you were booked, otherwise if you were summonsed you will most probably be offered a plea agreement to a local public/underage drinking ordinance. You will have to wait two years to expunge such an arrest.
