Which nursing schools in Washington state are the easiest to get into?


September 6th, 2022

I would say none of them are, I know several people who try for years to get into any nursing school, and it is extremely competitive. We have some community colleges with a lottery system but those you get in by sheer luck (Highline, North Seattle, Central Seattle, etc.). Shoreline community college is very transparent with their admission and will break down your chances of getting in based on points, where you get more points for experience or certifications like a BLS but even then they are very difficult in their curriculum if you do manage to get in. My advice is to apply everywhere at once and then consider your options if you get in, rather than banking it on one school that was rumored to be easy to get into.
