When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, we can help students at Indiana 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.
Use the snapshot as an identity and evidence check, not as a substitute for a handbook. The accreditor record supports an accredited master's nursing degree at Indiana State University; it does not answer which pathways are active, how courses are delivered, how many hours apply, or who handles placement.
As of the July 21, 2026 source review, ACEN records supported an accredited master's nursing degree at Indiana State University. That is a useful verification point but a limited one. It cannot be used to infer available specialties, delivery method, field-experience hours, approval deadlines, mentor rules, or placement assistance.
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 Indiana 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 Indiana State University.
A confirmed informatics course may need expertise in clinical systems, analytics, implementation, or workflow. A public health, community, quality, care coordination, or clinical nurse leader course may need a different setting and mentor. Use the MSN pathways page to separate the categories, then apply only the criteria supplied by Indiana State University.
A master's nursing degree does not carry one universal field-hour requirement. The student's pathway, individual course, curriculum version, transfer history, and catalog year can affect what remains. Confirm the current Indiana State University handbook and degree audit, plus any course-specific placement instructions, instead of treating a generic number as a school rule.
The MSN clinical hours guide explains the difference between direct-care and other applied experiences without assigning an unsupported total to this institution. Once the program confirms the exact course requirement, the search can focus on the hours, setting, supervision, and objectives that actually need approval.
Terre Haute, Indiana is the directory location for Indiana 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.
Our Indiana MSN guide gives a state-level view of possible practice and systems settings. The school page and state page are planning aids; the current program still decides whether the student's location, candidate, site, and documents are acceptable.
A complete proposal connects the current course to a specific person and setting. Document the candidate's credentials, role, experience, site, availability, supervision plan, and willingness to complete school paperwork. This preparation helps Indiana State University review the request but cannot replace its affiliation, compliance, authorization, background, or approval process.
A practical readiness checklist includes the active catalog year, degree audit, course number, pathway, applied objective, confirmed hours, dates, approved geography, setting category, candidate qualifications, conflict rules, affiliation needs, compliance items, required forms, and review deadline. Mark every unresolved item for written program confirmation before the search brief is final.
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 Indiana 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. Indiana 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 Indiana State University. We source and document possible candidates for program review and do not guarantee placement or approval.

No cost to request. An advisor reviews the current course, pathway, location, and approval requirements before candidate sourcing begins.
We do not guarantee placement. Final approval rests with your program.
