Butte College RN Program

Published

I have consecutively applied to the Butte College Nursing Program for the last 4 semesters (2 years!). When I first applied, I was aware of the waiting list but I was told that the 4th time applying would guarantee a spot in the program due to the increase in chances every semester. I just emailed the program directer who was very nice and helpful, but informed me that most students are getting in their 6th or 7th time applying! I would love to hear from others who are working toward the Butte RN program, how many times they have applied and so on...would love to hear some feedback on other's experiences!

I think I would need a couple more classes to take to get into their BSN. Definitely a possibility , I could try yuba too though I just need pathophysiology. I just had my hopes set on butte ?

I’m just wondering has anyone on here gotten in not on the 7th round? Either earlier or later?

From reading all the past posts I remember at least a couple lucky people that got in on their 3rd or 4th times, or something like that, but it seems the overwhelming majority was on the 7th time.

I got in on my 6th application, and was told that I had a 50/50 chance at that time (Fall semester 2018). It’s hard to say what it is now, but what I can tell you is, that it’s well worth the wait, it’s such a great program! Good luck to all of you future nurses!

My friend was in the program 2010. It took her that long too. But you never know! Thanks!

This upcoming round to be decided next month is my 4th time so I’m not holding my breath but was curious. It does seem like lucky #7 is key.

Any general idea when we’re supposed to hear back this time?

Not sure I haven’t heard anything and I can’t remember what the “don’t email us until after this date” was

I got denied as well. However I got in at another school! If any of you have the ability to move for school, branch out and try other places!
