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 Marymount University review. The institution remains the approval authority, and the accreditation evidence on this page establishes only an accredited master's nursing degree.

The directory record answers one narrow question: why Marymount University belongs in this MSN roster. It cannot establish concentration availability, modality, mentor qualifications, state authorization, hour requirements, or the institution's placement process. Confirm each of those points directly for the student's catalog year.
The accreditation fact for Marymount University comes from CCNE and was verified for this roster on July 21, 2026. Its scope is degree accreditation. The source does not prove a particular specialty, course format, practicum requirement, student sourcing model, review timeline, or candidate qualification standard.
Before outreach, identify the student's exact pathway and course, then collect the current catalog page, handbook section, degree audit, course objectives, field forms, and contact instructions. Ask the program to confirm whether this course requires a preceptor, mentor, site, or other applied experience and which facts must appear in the proposal.
If the confirmed pathway is a direct-care nurse practitioner pathway, a course may call for supervised patient care with a population-aligned, board-certified nurse practitioner or physician. The candidate's active practice, patient population, license, certification, site capacity, and ability to meet course objectives may matter. This description explains a pathway category; it does not claim that Marymount University offers that pathway or accepts every professional with those credentials.
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 Marymount University.
Informatics, public health, community health, care coordination, quality, and clinical nurse leader courses cannot be reduced to one supervisor template. The relevant professional and site follow the approved objective, whether it involves systems, analytics, implementation, population work, or coordination. Our MSN specialty guide provides context but does not establish an offering at Marymount University.
Do not estimate a student's requirement from the MSN label. There is no universal practicum total, and required hours vary across programs, pathways, courses, and catalog years. Use Marymount University's current documents and field placement guidance to confirm both the total and the purpose of the experience. The MSN hours guide explains why totals differ.
Use the MSN practicum hours overview for a general framework, not for a school-specific figure. A useful sourcing brief records the confirmed hours for this course, their learning purpose, the acceptable setting, how supervision is documented, and whether separate experiences need separate approvals.
A school location and a practicum location are separate facts. Although Marymount University is listed in Arlington, Virginia, the student should verify state authorization, course geography, licensure considerations, and affiliation requirements before outreach. The selected person and organization must also support the confirmed objectives and approval process.
The statewide MSN guide for Virginia can support a local search plan. Apply the exact pathway, course, geography, role, and site criteria confirmed by the program before treating any setting as a viable proposal.
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 Marymount University review the request but cannot replace its affiliation, compliance, authorization, background, or approval process.
A complete search brief names the student's actual pathway and course and records the approved experience type, hours, dates, location, setting, person, credentials, objectives, forms, conflicts, affiliation steps, compliance items, and submission sequence. Confirm any blank with the field placement office rather than filling it with another school's practice.
If the confirmed course calls for an outside person or setting, send the pathway, objectives, dates, geography, role criteria, site criteria, and forms through the matching request. Our process guide explains how candidate screening supports, but never replaces, the program's approval review.
Our role is limited to independent candidate sourcing and documentation. MSNPreceptor is not affiliated with or endorsed by Marymount University, cannot waive any school or site requirement, and does not guarantee placement or approval. The current program determines whether the proposal fits the student's pathway and course.
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. Marymount 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 Marymount 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.
