This directory covers 1,070 United States institutions with a current accredited baccalaureate nursing degree in the July 21, 2026 roster. Accreditation supports inclusion, but it does not establish prelicensure, accelerated, RN-to-BSN, modality, hours, a field-experience requirement, or placement responsibility. Open a school page, then confirm the student's current pathway and course directly with the program.
Last updated July 2026
The roster combines current CCNE, ACEN, and NLN CNEA accreditation evidence for baccalaureate nursing degrees. It was verified on July 21, 2026. That evidence answers why an institution appears here. It does not identify a pathway, course format, clinical or field-experience hours, placement model, candidate criteria, or school policy.
School pages therefore lead with a conditional answer: outside sourcing applies only when the student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor. The student must bring current requirements into the process, and the named school makes every approval decision.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure clinical placements are generally coordinated by the nursing program. Students should use that process unless current written instructions explicitly allow a student proposal. BSNPreceptor is independent, is not affiliated with any listed institution, and does not guarantee placement or approval. See how the conditional sourcing process works.
Each institution below appears in a current CCNE, ACEN, or NLN CNEA record for an accredited baccalaureate nursing degree. Inclusion does not establish a pathway, modality, hour total, field-experience requirement, or placement model. Open a school page for an approval-focused planning guide, then confirm every requirement with the current program.
Suppose a student's current pathway leads to initial RN licensure. Traditional and accelerated prelicensure clinical experiences are generally coordinated through the nursing program, its approved sites, faculty oversight, and affiliation agreements. The student should follow the program's placement office and should not contact outside sites independently unless the current course explicitly permits a proposal.
Accreditation does not reveal whether a named institution uses this pathway or allows an exception. The current catalog, handbook, course instructions, state authorization, and clinical office must answer those questions. If the program assigns the experience, no independent placement service is needed.
Suppose a current post-licensure course explicitly permits the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor. The work may involve community health, population health, education, leadership, quality, care coordination, or another approved objective. This example does not claim that every listed school offers RN-to-BSN or requires a student proposal.
Possible settings include public-health programs, community clinics, school health, occupational health, home health, hospice, nonprofits, care coordination, quality teams, and population-health services. A possible candidate may be an experienced registered nurse or another professional whose role fits the current course. The program decides who and what are eligible.
There is no universal BSN clinical or field-experience total. Required hours vary by state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year, and no accreditation listing can supply the named school's number. Confirm the current catalog, handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office before planning around hours.
BSNPreceptor can independently source and document a possible candidate only when the current program permits a student proposal. The program and proposed site retain approval authority, and a request does not guarantee a candidate, placement, paperwork completion, or academic outcome.
It shows that current CCNE, ACEN, or NLN CNEA evidence supported an accredited baccalaureate nursing degree at the institution on July 21, 2026. It does not prove a pathway, modality, hours, field requirement, placement model, candidate rule, deadline, or other school policy.
No. The roster does not establish pathway offerings. Prelicensure, accelerated, RN-to-BSN, and other pathway examples explain how placement ownership can differ, but students must confirm what their current school and course actually offer and require.
There is no universal total. Required hours vary by state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office for the student's exact requirement.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure placements are generally program-coordinated. Use the school's current placement process. Outside sourcing is appropriate only if current instructions explicitly permit the student to propose a person or site.
No. BSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any listed institution. The school makes every approval decision, and no placement or approval is guaranteed.
Outside sourcing applies only when the current program explicitly permits or requires a student-proposed preceptor, mentor, or site. An advisor reviews the course instructions before candidate sourcing begins.
We do not guarantee placement. Final approval rests with your program.
