Solano Community College Fall 2024

Published

Hi, future nurses! Creating this post for those who applied to Solano Community College with a 2024 start date.

Has anyone heard anything yet? Previous community threads here talk about how you don't hear anything until February or possibly March, but that seems so far away.

Fingers crossed for all those who applied!

Note from allnurses Staff 

To help all of those looking to get started at Solano, we've put together a bit more information about the program below.

Solano Community College Nursing Program

Solano Community College is based in Fairfield, California. The college offers a quality two-year ADN program with a most recent NCLEX pass rate of 87.18% in 2022/2023. 

There are between 35-45 students taking the NCLEX exams in a given year, so you can expect roughly 50 students in your cohort as not all will continue the program through its entirety.

Nursing Program Tuition and Costs

The estimated total program costs are $8,000 to $8,500, or roughly $4,000 in annual tuition costs.

Nursing Application Deadlines

The deadline for acceptance into the fall nursing program, which starts in August each year, is September 1 – September 30. For this cohort, you should have already applied for entrance if you'd like to start in August 2024.

Also an alternate but at least we all have a guaranteed spot for next year if we don't get in somewhere else before! I'm also waiting to hear from Yuba, Butte and Evergreen. Hopefully I'll get into one of those schools, but alternate with a dedicated spot next year still feels better than not knowing when it will ever happen ?

Does anyone know if they have given up guaranteed spots to alternates before? Like I paused after I seen that like oh wait, This is a partial acceptance for next year!

I also applied to a lot of other schools too. I'm hoping to get in somewhere based on merit. Solano is in my top 2 though so hopefully I can get off this alternate list.

Yes I've heard of alternates getting accepted. Hopefully we all get in, but like you said at least we know for 2025

I apologize, I worded that so wrong.

Have they given alternates guaranteed spots for the NEXT APPLICATION YEAR in prior years? Or is this the first year that they have done this?

Ohhh got it! I'm pretty sure they have done this in the past.

I just got an email that I am an alternate for 08/2024 and for sure acceptance for 08/2025 if no one from the first cohort drops out.

I confirmed right after I got the acceptance, and have not gotten a return confirmation to confirm my confirmation. ?. It's also driving me crazy.
