I think the girls should be charged with assault as befits the "crime." Then I think it's up to the legal system to decide what to do about it.
The reality of the situation (assuming the judge will not be swayed by the weight of media attention -- which she/he shouldn't be) is that they are unlikely to get much more than probation, or a short jail term, fine and maybe some community service.
And, as momoftwo pointed out, they weren't charged with felonys.
If they can't get into a highly selective college because of this record (and negative news coverage), that's the way it goes. They could have considered that before they went ballistic on their classmates.
