FNU Students Earn Honor Society Scholarships
Each fall, Frontier Nursing University’s (FNU) Chi Pi Chapter of the Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing (STTI) awards several students with financial scholarships. To qualify for STTI membership, students must have completed at least a quarter of their degree program, hold a 3.5 or higher grade point average and demonstrate academic excellence. This year, three nurse practitioner students received the scholarship, including Jazmin Townes, Joanna Wilder, and Sarah Logan. Congratulations to FNU’s Fall 2021 Chi Pi scholarship recipients! The FNU community is proud of your dedication to hard work.
Frontier Nursing University Offers Students Unique, Innovative Experience Before Clinicals
What sets Frontier Nursing University (FNU) apart from other online advanced nursing programs? The answer: many things, but one thing at the top of the list is our on-campus Clinical Bound experience for Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and Post-Graduate Certificate (PGC) students!
Clinical Bound is a five-day skills intensive experience in which students return to our Versailles, Ky. campus before they begin their clinical practicum. This unique, hands-on active learning experience allows students to feel validated as having acquired the skills necessary to begin their community-based clinical practicum. Clinical Bound also allows students to have face to face communication with their faculty members and peers. It is one of the signature events in every student’s time at FNU. Clinical Bound is the second time students come to campus. The first time is for Frontier Bound, which is a three-day orientation-style experience.
FNU’s Innovative Faculty Adjust to Students’ Needs during the Crisis
Just as Frontier Nursing University (FNU) teaches its students to understand and address the needs of the communities they serve across the country, the FNU faculty and staff are keenly aware of the needs of our student community. Those needs are ever-changing, never more so than during the COVID-19 pandemic. I am incredibly proud of how our faculty and staff acted with tremendous efficiency, professionalism, and care to ensure the best possible outcomes for our students.
Get to Know FNU’s Clinical Support Teams
At FNU, students are not alone in their search for clinical site placement. Our clinical support teams are with them every step of the way. FNU students complete coursework online and a clinical experience in their home communities across the country. The convenience and flexibility that distance education brings to nurse-midwifery and nurse practitioner students is one of FNU’s primary advantages. Another great benefit to students is FNU’s dedicated staff and faculty teams who assist in identifying and selecting qualified preceptors and customizing a clinical experience to each student’s unique needs and interests.
