Chico High School, in conjunction with Butte College, offers seniors an
opportunity to register for their first semester of college through a program
called Reg-To-Go.
By completing each part of a three-step process, students will have
their first semester of college classes in place prior to graduating from high
school. Seniors who fail to complete any step of this program will delay
the class registration process until after high school graduation. Whether
Butte College is your first choice or just a back up plan, don't miss the Reg-To-Go
program.
Community College is a great place to either
get training for job placement, earn a certificate, earn an Associate Degree or
complete General Education credits necessary to transfer to a 4-year college.
