Data analysis was done using frequency counts, simple percentages, means and standard deviation for research objectives, while t-test with cut off point of 2.50 MANOVA and ANOVA were employed in testing the eight null hypotheses at .05 level of significance. The findings revealed that there is significant difference in the student nurses view of their actual and preferred hospital CLE (p<0.05) in all the subscales. Student nurses view of their actual hospital CLE is significantly negative (Mean scores <2.50 and p<0.05) and that of preferred hospital CLE is positive (mean scores (> 2.50 and p<0.05). Only gender and year of study in the preferred hospital clinical learning environment were significant (p = 0.041 and p = 0.000) respectively. They were agree to be the factors that influence student nurses opinion of their hospital CLE (mean scores >2.50 and p<0.05), except age of student (p = 0.694) and gender of student (p = 0. 189). In conclusion, student nurses in Enugu State have significant negative view of their actual hospital CLE.
