The study is conducted with the aim to assess the emotional intelligence among the 3rd and 4th year nursing students of Far Eastern University -Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation (FEU-NRMF). The data of this research were obtained through the use of a questionnaire which elicited information on the students' Emotional Intelligence level. The sample of the study consisted of (25) third year nursing students and (18) fourth year nursing students. A purposive sampling technique was adapted in this research.
