When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, independent sourcing support is available to University of Akron, The students. We organize a candidate around the current instructions, while University of Akron, The makes every approval decision and its accreditation listing proves no school-specific placement rule.
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 University of Akron, The; it does not answer which pathways are active, how courses are delivered, how many hours apply, or who handles placement.
The current directory basis is CCNE evidence, verified July 21, 2026, for master's nursing education at University of Akron, The. 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.
When a student's confirmed course is an NP practicum, the match may center on population focus and supervised patient care. A program can evaluate the proposed clinician's certification, license, experience, practice site, patient access, availability, and willingness to complete forms. Accreditation does not tell us whether University of Akron, The offers that course or which clinician types it accepts.
A nurse educator practicum can focus on curriculum, teaching, staff development, simulation, or learner evaluation, while a leadership practicum can focus on operations, quality, administration, or organizational change. Each calls for relevant expertise rather than a generic clinical title. These are conditional pathway examples and not claims about the programs available at University of Akron, The.
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.
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 University of Akron, The'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.
Read how MSN practicum hours vary, then verify the active course with University of Akron, The. Sourcing should begin only after the program confirms the amount, experience type, approved geography, supervisor role, setting, and forms attached to the requirement.
Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from University of Akron, The's Akron 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 statewide MSN guide for Ohio 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.
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 University of Akron, The and the proposed site.
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.
We source against confirmed requirements and document a possible match for school review. The steps are described on how it works. When the student can provide the current course, pathway, dates, location, role, setting, and forms, submit a sourcing request to begin.
MSNPreceptor works independently and is not affiliated with or endorsed by University of Akron, The. School names are used descriptively so students can find the right planning page. A sourcing request creates no guarantee of a candidate, placement, approval, graduation, licensure, or other academic or professional outcome.
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. University of Akron, The 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 University of Akron, The. We source and document possible candidates for program review and do not guarantee placement or approval.
