Nursing
LVN-RN Program Fall 2020 Cancelled: Due to the uncertainty of Covid-19 as it unfolds, and the affect on our student nursing clinical experience, we have decided to not offer the LVN-RN Program for Fall 2020.
Nursing Applicants and the Pandemic
Science Prerequisites: Since we are using the Merit Based Criteria, if you are taking a prerequisite that
is used to calculate your GPA, it is advised that you take a Letter grade instead
of Credit/No credit or Pass/No pass
- If you use the credit/no credit option you will receive a "C" letter grade for the GPA calculation.
- If you take a science that includes a lab, during the spring or summer semesters of 2020, we will accept an online lab. This will apply to Spring, Summer, and Fall 2020 semesters only; possibly Spring 2021.
Please continue to check here for updates for the Fall 2021 LVN-RN Program.

Opportunities
RN is projected with an average hourly wage of $56.50 in Alameda County 2014-2020. The outlook for RNs will continue to be positive as a very high in-demand job with a projected job growth of 16% from 2014-24 due to emphasis on preventive care, growing rates of chronic conditions such as diabetes and obesity, and demand for healthcare services as people are living longer and more actively.
Many of our graduates work at Bay Area health facilities in various positions and even return to Chabot's Nursing Program assisting current students. Our program offers a pathway for students to becoming RNs and to take advantage of these opportunities.
