When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, we can help students at Coppin State University prepare an approval-ready proposal. We do not decide eligibility, and the national accreditation record does not reveal a concentration, hour total, modality, or placement model.
Accreditation is the basis for listing Coppin State University, but accreditation is not a course instruction. A student still needs the current catalog, degree audit, handbook, and placement materials to verify pathway, course design, required hours, location limits, deadlines, and candidate qualifications.
The CCNE source included Coppin State University in its accredited master's nursing records when this roster was checked on July 21, 2026. That establishes the degree-level accreditation used here, not an NP concentration, education track, leadership track, informatics option, public health focus, exact hour total, modality, deadline, or placement policy.
Translate the current handbook and course instructions into a search brief before outreach. The brief should state the pathway, course, applied objective, dates, approved state, setting, population or project focus, supervisor criteria, site documents, compliance needs, and review process. Unconfirmed assumptions should be marked for the program to resolve.
A direct-care NP course can require a clinical site and a nurse practitioner or physician whose certification and patient population align with the student's focus. Programs may examine licensure, board status, practice activity, supervision, patient access, conflicts, and site paperwork. Nothing in the accreditation record shows that Coppin State University offers an NP concentration, so the student must first confirm the pathway and its current rules.
Education and leadership experiences should not be screened as NP rotations. An education course may call for a mentor involved in teaching, simulation, professional development, or clinical instruction. A leadership course may align with operations, administration, quality, or executive practice. The current program must confirm the pathway, person, and site because accreditation establishes none of those offerings for Coppin State University.
Informatics may call for a nurse informaticist or clinical systems professional working with analytics, implementation, workflow, or technology. Public health, community health, clinical nurse leader, care coordination, quality, and other pathways can point to still different mentors and settings. Use the MSN pathway guide to frame the distinction, then let the student's current program define the eligible role.
There is no universal MSN practicum total across schools and pathways. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Do not use a number from another institution, an older handbook, or a different concentration as Coppin State University's requirement. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and field placement office before calculating the request.
Our MSN hours resource shows why NP, education, leadership, informatics, public health, and other experiences should not share one assumed total. The current program must still state what this student needs and which portion a proposed person and site would supervise.
Baltimore, Maryland is the directory location for Coppin State University; it is not a promise that every student can place there. The current program must confirm permitted states and any location restrictions. Geography is only one screen, alongside course objectives, setting fit, candidate credentials, site capacity, conflicts, affiliation terms, and required documentation.
For broader setting context, review the MSN practicum guide for Maryland. It can help identify categories of clinical, education, leadership, informatics, public health, and systems sites, while the student's current program remains the authority on what is allowed.
The program needs a proposal it can evaluate, not just a contact name. Build the file around course fit, candidate qualifications, site capacity, dates, supervision, geography, conflicts, and all requested documents. Any affiliation agreement, compliance review, authorization, insurance, background requirement, or other condition remains with Coppin State University and the proposed site.
Build the request from verified fields: current pathway, course, catalog year, field objective, required hours, term, geography, site type, candidate role, credentials, conflicts, affiliation requirements, compliance documents, school forms, and deadline. The goal is to remove ambiguity before a possible preceptor, mentor, or organization is asked to participate.
Once the current requirements are clear, our placement process uses them to identify and screen a possible preceptor, mentor, or site. We share candidate information for program review rather than presenting a match as approved. A request can begin at the matching form after the student has the controlling course documents.
Nothing on this page is issued by Coppin State University. MSNPreceptor is an independent service, is not affiliated with or endorsed by the institution, and cannot approve the student's preceptor, mentor, site, or paperwork. We also cannot guarantee that a match will be found or accepted.
It applies when the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site and the student has the current requirements needed for sourcing. Coppin State University makes every approval decision.
No. The accreditation evidence establishes an accredited master's nursing degree on the verification date. It does not prove an NP concentration, education, leadership, informatics, public health, or another pathway, and it does not establish modality or placement policy.
There is no universal MSN practicum total. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and field placement office rather than relying on a generic number.
The answer follows the confirmed pathway and course. Direct-care NP, education, leadership, informatics, public health, quality, and other experiences can require different professionals and settings. The current program must approve the proposed role, credentials, site, and paperwork.
No. MSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Coppin State University. We source and document possible candidates for program review and do not guarantee placement or approval.
