Distance Education

At Frontier Nursing University, we believe your “community” is more than your neighbors next door. As an FNU student, your community includes classmates across the country as well as faculty, alumni and supporters around the globe. With our distance education model, you have the opportunity to study in your home community while building a much larger network through FNU.

MORE THAN 8,000 ALUMNI AND 2,000 ENROLLED STUDENTS

Before beginning your coursework, you will meet in Kentucky for an orientation to FNU. Here you will build relationships with your classmates, Frontier faculty and staff, and your advisor. These key relationships will help you throughout your program at FNU and well beyond.

“The Frontier faculty has been great. I couldn’t say enough about them and how much they really show they care about their students…Even being in a university setting, I never had the relationships I have with the professors even though it’s a long distance, distance-based program.”
- Amanda Arlington
Nurse Practitioner Student
