Results: The results showed that most of the students had a very heavy internal stress source as much as 67.5% and a very heavy external stress source as much as 89.4%. Nursing students for the most part have great stress in following the distance learning system. The results of this study are expected to be input for finding solutions in overcoming sources of stress faced by nursing students in undergoing distance learning
