What to Do Next?

Question

I am taking evening classes at major Uni. I was accused of plagiarism last month. Due to wfh situation while managing a job, I did copy code from somewhere. I have come forth and apologized. Anything I could do to make situation better? This is first time I have done something. I was under intense pressure and did this due to fear of grades. Is there anything I could do to lessen the punishment? I know I am getting 0 on that part of course, but I want to salvage the situation.I have learned lesson and will not copy anything again.
