An unexpected shift from face-to-face to online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic has given a massive challenge to the students. This study aims to determine the common obstacles and their effect on nursing students' attitudes towards open and distance learning (ODL) during Covid-19. The study employed a quantitative research design. The findings showed that 2% of nursing students had obstacles during ODL. The most common dimension of ODL obstacles was curriculum content. There was a statistically significant between obstacles faced and their attitude towards ODL. Nursing students encounter no difficulties during the ODL. However, their attitudes were greatly affected throughout the ODL. Keywords: Obstacle(s), Attitude, Open Distance Learning (ODL), Covid-19 eISSN: 2398-4287 © 2022. The Authors.
