When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, we can help students at University of Phoenix prepare an approval-ready proposal. We do not decide eligibility, and the national accreditation record does not reveal a concentration, hour total, modality, or placement model.
The compact record deliberately separates an accreditation fact from placement assumptions. University of Phoenix 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.
The current directory basis is CCNE evidence, verified July 21, 2026, for master's nursing education at University of Phoenix. 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.
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 Phoenix confirms the actual pathway and course requirements for the student.
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 University of Phoenix offers either option from its master's accreditation.
An informatics experience can center on clinical systems, analytics, implementation, technology adoption, or workflow and may need a nurse informaticist or another approved systems professional. Public health, community practice, care coordination, quality, clinical nurse leader, and other pathways use their own objectives. The MSN specialties overview helps compare roles without assigning one to this school.
The safe answer to the hours question is program confirmation. Required MSN hours vary by pathway, course, school, and catalog year, and the accreditation record provides no total. Have University of Phoenix identify the controlling handbook, current degree audit, course instructions, and approved distribution before building a placement request around any number.
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.
Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from University of Phoenix's Phoenix 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.
Use the Arizona MSN placement overview to think through local setting categories and practical geography. It does not establish an authorization or approval rule for University of Phoenix; 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 Phoenix and the proposed site.
A practical readiness checklist includes the active catalog year, degree audit, course number, pathway, applied objective, confirmed hours, dates, approved geography, setting category, candidate qualifications, conflict rules, affiliation needs, compliance items, required forms, and review deadline. Mark every unresolved item for written program confirmation before the search brief is final.
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 Phoenix. 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 Phoenix 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 Phoenix. 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.
