When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, we support University of Detroit Mercy students with candidate sourcing and documentation. Final review stays with the program, and accreditation confirms the master's degree rather than any particular pathway, hours, or placement procedure.
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 Detroit Mercy; 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 Detroit Mercy. 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.
Start with the documents controlling the student's actual term. The course number, pathway, objectives, dates, approved geography, setting type, candidate credentials, affiliation requirements, compliance items, and submission forms should all be confirmed before anyone contacts a potential site. Older catalogs or another university's rules are not reliable substitutes.
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 Detroit Mercy offers that course or which clinician types it accepts.
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 University of Detroit Mercy.
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.
No fixed MSN practicum total can be assigned to University of Detroit Mercy 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.
The MSN hours guide can help a student ask better questions about pathway and course structure. It cannot calculate a University of Detroit Mercy requirement. That calculation belongs to the current program, using the student's active curriculum, degree audit, and course sequence.
Detroit, Michigan is the directory location for University of Detroit Mercy; 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.
Use the Michigan MSN placement overview to think through local setting categories and practical geography. It does not establish an authorization or approval rule for University of Detroit Mercy; only the current program can do that.
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 Detroit Mercy 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.
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 University of Detroit Mercy, 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. University of Detroit Mercy 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 Detroit Mercy. 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.
