| Abstract: As nursing students are the future health care providers, they should acquire knowledge regarding egg freezing technology (EFT) to serve themselves first and others. Aim of the study: Evaluate the effect of virtual educational program on female faculty nursing students' perception toward egg freezing technology and their fears regarding it. Subjects and Method: A quasi- experimental research design was used. Setting: The study was conducted at Faculty of Nursing, Tanta University. Subjects: A cluster random sample of 320 female nursing students were selected. Four tools were used: Tool (I): A structured questionnaire which included: Part 1: Socio demographic characteristics, Part 2: Knowledge regarding EFT. Tool (II): Attitudes of the female nursing students regarding EFT. Tool (III): Opinion of the female nursing students about if they would personally consider undertaking EFT in the future and their reasons. Tool (IV): Fears of undergoing egg freezing among the female nursing students. Results: The total knowledge score of the participants significantly improved among half of them and more than two- thirds of the participants had positive attitude toward EFT three months post-program with a highly statistically significant difference.
