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 got in! This was my 7th application.

Nice. Genuinely happy for you and everyone who got in.

So happy for everyone who got in! 

Thank you, I honestly was shocked I got in on my 6th try. Congrats to those who got in and good luck to those who are trying again next semester!

I just got my acceptance email!! Did anyone else from this thread get accepted to the Fall 22 cohort? 

Got my 4th rejection. 

I haven't gotten an email yet ? 

(7th application)

Oh I would email them about that. May e you missed it or it went to junk by accident 

I had some quick questions!

-How many times a year can you apply? (Would it be 1 per semester? So would it take 3.5 years for a total of 7 applications?)(7 applications seems to be the lucky number!) 

- Does anyone know an estimate of the cost of the Butte RN program?

Thank you!

@LMM You can apply twice a year. Do not be discouraged though, I just got accepted on my 4th application. Good luck!

@Tiffiney Mccraney I got accepted as well! Did you see that it is hybrid? I was hoping to do all in person learning so the cohort can bond but I guess we take what we get!!
