Abstract

Abstract Purpose: To explore perceptions of student learning in undergraduate nursing students who repeat the fundamentals nursing course and simultaneously take a support course. Methods: This qualitative descriptive design was conducted at one private liberal arts college. The study included interviews with six undergraduate baccalaureate nursing students repeating the fundamentals course and their perceptions following the repeated course. Results: Themes of discovering the value of repeating a course, attending to academic work, and navigating new social groups emerged. These findings provide insight into the experiences and perceptions of students repeating a nursing fundamentals course. Conclusion: Implications for nurse educators, advisers, and administrators include providing resources for student support and helping students recognize the value of seeking academic support before failing a course. Understanding students' perceptions regarding repeating a nursing fundamentals course provides valuable insight into retention efforts in undergraduate nursing programs.
