Campus Immersion Experiences

The experience of being a Frontier Nursing University student is unique and one you won’t find elsewhere. One to two campus immersion experiences are part of the FNU journey, including an orientation prior to beginning studies, and a skills-intensive workshop prior to beginning the clinical practicum.

Students begin their journey with an enriching three-day campus immersion experience on Frontier Nursing University’s beautiful campus in Kentucky. Our alumni will tell you that this tradition is one of their most treasured memories as an FNU student.
