When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, our role is to source and document a possible match for Marquette University review. The institution remains the approval authority, and the accreditation evidence on this page establishes only an accredited master's nursing degree.
This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that Marquette University offers a particular NP or non-NP pathway, teaches online, assigns a specific practicum total, or expects students to find their own sites. Those facts require current official program materials.
The current directory basis is CCNE evidence, verified July 21, 2026, for master's nursing education at Marquette University. The evidence does not publish a complete course plan for this student. Treat concentration, modality, practice hours, affiliation rules, placement responsibility, and approval criteria as separate facts that require current school sources.
The student's current program materials should answer the questions the accreditation listing cannot. Gather the catalog year, course instructions, degree audit, objectives, approved locations, mentor or preceptor criteria, site forms, affiliation language, compliance checklist, and submission sequence before defining the search.
A direct-care pathway can make the clinical population and supervisor's certification central to site fit. The program may need evidence of current licensure, board certification, active practice, relevant patients, adequate supervision, and a compliant setting. Apply that screen only after Marquette University confirms the actual pathway and course requirements for the student.
When the verified pathway is education, an experienced academic or clinical educator may be the relevant mentor. When it is leadership or administration, an executive, operations, or quality professional may be more aligned. The course objectives and current credential rules decide the fit. The roster does not show whether Marquette University offers these pathways.
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.
No fixed MSN practicum total can be assigned to Marquette University from accreditation evidence. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, and catalog year. The current catalog, handbook, degree audit, course shell, and field placement office should resolve the total and how it is distributed before a preceptor, mentor, or site search is scoped.
A broad explanation is available in the MSN clinical hours guide, but the student's course documents are controlling. Confirm whether the experience is direct care, education, leadership, systems, community, quality, or another purpose so the candidate and site are screened against the right objectives.
Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from Marquette University's Milwaukee address. The program may apply state, site, licensure, affiliation, or modality rules that the accreditation source does not show. Every proposed setting still needs course fit and program approval.
The Wisconsin MSN placement guide describes the wider search landscape. Use it to understand possible settings, not to bypass the program's course, state authorization, affiliation, credential, or approval requirements.
Treat candidate sourcing and school approval as separate stages. We can organize role, credentials, site information, dates, objectives, availability, and requested documents for review. Marquette University alone decides whether the person and organization meet current course rules and whether any contracts, compliance steps, or additional forms are complete.
Confirm these items before outreach: the exact MSN pathway and course; whether an applied experience is required; the approved hours and dates; the eligible state and setting; the required preceptor or mentor credentials; the course objectives; any prohibited relationships; the affiliation and compliance process; every school and site form; and the submission deadline for the student's active term.
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.
MSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Marquette University. We do not act for the institution, decide eligibility, or guarantee that a preceptor, mentor, or site will be found or approved. The program and proposed site retain their own review authority, and no outcome is promised.
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. Marquette 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 Marquette 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.
