Starting a thread for people applying to the regular nursing program (not accelerated) for fall of 2025. It's my fifth time applying so I'm looking at a few more times to go through this same process. Good luck everyone.

I have a couple questions for you number one what application number was this for you? Second question what did the thread of the email say? Third what did the rest of the body of the email say?
For example this was my fourth time applying and my thread says fourth time applicants text body says sorry to regret to inform you you were not selected reapply May
Application number 5
Email subject: Butte College RN Lottery Results - Alternates
Then it goes to list numbers 1 through 12 by student ID in the order of alternates (# of alternates is different every lottery so I've been told)
And then has multiple steps to complete as an alternate. You have to accept the alternate spot by calling or emailing back (This is not a guarantee to get in this fall just confirming that if they have open spots that you want it if it gets down to your number just in case people who got in defer or decline) The other steps are to re-apply to butte if you have not attended in the last semester, schedule a counseling appointment to complete your education plan, submit fasfa for 2025/26, declare your program in your butte account and then order and complete the background check/tox screen that is attached in the email all with the deadline of May.
Doing all of those things listed in the email says that it guarantees that if you do not get in fall 25 you are guaranteed a spot Spring 2026
Hope that helps :) All of my other application emails were exactly like yours mentioned. And I know that getting accepted into the program with an actual spot comes with a congratulations statement.
