This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that Schreiner 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 Schreiner 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.

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.

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 Schreiner University offers that pathway or accepts every professional with those credentials.

Non-NP field experiences can place the learning objective outside direct patient care. Education may involve teaching or professional development; leadership may involve systems, operations, administration, or quality. The proposed mentor needs experience that matches the confirmed course. Do not infer that Schreiner University offers either option from its master's accreditation.

Systems-oriented pathways add another set of possibilities. Informatics might involve data, implementation, workflow, or clinical technology, while public health, care coordination, quality, community health, or clinical nurse leader work may need different organizations and mentors. Review the MSN pathway distinctions, then confirm the exact offering and eligibility rules with the program.

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 Schreiner University's requirement. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and field placement office before calculating the request.

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.

Use Kerrville, Texas as directory context only. A student's actual search area should come from current Schreiner University guidance about authorized states, course location, site eligibility, and affiliation. Even inside an approved area, a willing professional or organization is not automatically an eligible match.

The Texas 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. Schreiner 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.

Our independent sourcing process starts with the verified requirement packet, not a school-policy assumption. We look for a candidate whose role and setting appear aligned, document the relevant facts, and submit them to the program's process. Use the request form when the current instructions are ready.

MSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Schreiner University.

The program and proposed site retain their own review authority, and no outcome is promised.
