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 University of North Dakota review. The institution remains the approval authority, and the accreditation evidence on this page establishes only an accredited master's nursing degree.
The compact record deliberately separates an accreditation fact from placement assumptions. University of North Dakota is included because of its master's nursing accreditation evidence. The record does not establish what concentrations it offers, whether a course has field hours, or whether the student, school, or another party sources a site.
Our July 21, 2026 roster check found University of North Dakota in the CCNE accreditation evidence for master's nursing education. Accreditation supports the institution's presence in this directory. It does not identify the student's pathway, course objectives, supervisor credentials, practicum setting, location authorization, or sourcing responsibility.
Do not begin with a generic MSN placement template. Begin with the current course and ask the program to verify the pathway, required role, learning objectives, eligible setting, geography, credential standard, paperwork, compliance items, affiliation needs, and deadline. That keeps the candidate screen tied to the student's actual requirement.
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 University of North Dakota confirms the actual pathway and course requirements for the student.
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 North Dakota.
A confirmed informatics course may need expertise in clinical systems, analytics, implementation, or workflow. A public health, community, quality, care coordination, or clinical nurse leader course may need a different setting and mentor. Use the MSN pathways page to separate the categories, then apply only the criteria supplied by University of North Dakota.
MSN practice requirements cannot be reduced to one reliable number. Hours vary with the program, pathway, course, and catalog year, and some courses may use field experiences that differ in purpose. Ask University of North Dakota to confirm the student's current requirement in writing, then use that answer rather than an online comparison or a figure from another pathway.
Read how MSN practicum hours vary, then verify the active course with University of North Dakota. Sourcing should begin only after the program confirms the amount, experience type, approved geography, supervisor role, setting, and forms attached to the requirement.
The directory records Grand Forks, North Dakota as the institution location. It does not determine the student's eligible placement area or authorize any site. Ask University of North Dakota to confirm the state and setting boundaries, then evaluate candidates for relevant work, credentials, availability, supervision, conflicts, paperwork, and site participation.
Use the North Dakota MSN placement overview to think through local setting categories and practical geography. It does not establish an authorization or approval rule for University of North Dakota; only the current program can do that.
Candidate willingness is only the beginning. An approval packet should explain the role, credentials, setting, relevant work, supervision, availability, course alignment, and paperwork status. The program can then apply its current affiliation, compliance, authorization, conflict, site, and mentor rules without relying on unstated assumptions.
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.
Nothing on this page is issued by University of North Dakota. MSNPreceptor is an independent service, is not affiliated with or endorsed by the institution, and cannot approve the student's preceptor, mentor, site, or paperwork. We also cannot guarantee that a match will be found or accepted.
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 North Dakota 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 North Dakota. 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.
