When a student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor, Christian Brothers University students may request independent candidate sourcing. Program review stays final, and directory inclusion proves no particular pathway or field requirement.

This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that Christian Brothers University offers prelicensure, accelerated, RN-to-BSN, online, or another pathway. It also does not establish a field experience, hours, student sourcing, or site rules.
The accreditation fact for Christian Brothers University comes from CCNE and was verified on July 21, 2026. Its scope is degree accreditation. The source does not prove a particular pathway, course format, field requirement, student proposal process, review timeline, or candidate standard.
A useful request begins with a current requirement packet. Confirm the pathway, course objective, placement ownership, eligible setting, location, candidate qualifications, compliance steps, affiliation process, and approval deadline. If the program has not authorized a student proposal, outside sourcing should not begin.
If the student's confirmed pathway leads to initial RN licensure, the program generally coordinates clinical experiences. Begin with Christian Brothers University's assigned-placement process. An external search is suitable only when the current course documents explicitly allow the student to propose a site or preceptor for program review.
For a verified post-licensure course that permits a student proposal, the setting should follow the applied objective rather than mimic a prelicensure hospital rotation. Community, population-health, quality, education, leadership, and coordination work are possible categories, not claims about Christian Brothers University's offerings.
Possible community and systems settings include clinics, public-health programs, schools, employee health, home health, hospice, nonprofits, quality teams, care coordination, and population-health services. The proposed person may be an experienced RN or another qualified professional. Current course rules, not this list, determine what is eligible.
Baccalaureate nursing practice requirements cannot be reduced to one reliable number. Hours vary with the state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Ask Christian Brothers University to confirm the student's current requirement in writing, then use that answer rather than an online comparison or a figure from another school.
Read how BSN practice requirements vary, then verify the active course with Christian Brothers University. Planning should begin only after the program confirms the amount, experience type, placement process, location, candidate role, setting, and forms.
Memphis, Tennessee is the directory location for Christian Brothers University; it is not a promise that a student can place there. The program must confirm permitted states and location restrictions. Geography is only one screen, alongside pathway, course objectives, setting fit, candidate credentials, site capacity, and affiliation terms.
For broader setting context, review the BSN field-experience guide for Tennessee. It can help identify community and systems setting categories, while the student's current program remains the authority on whether a proposal is allowed and what is eligible.
An approval-ready file states who the proposed person is, what role that person would perform, where the work would occur, which course objectives the setting supports, and when supervision is available. It also includes the credentials and forms requested. Christian Brothers University may separately require agreements, compliance checks, or other review steps.
Before a candidate is contacted, verify the pathway, course, applied purpose, required hours, term dates, location authorization, eligible setting, candidate role, credentials, affiliation process, compliance checklist, forms, and school deadline. Confirm explicitly that the student may propose a person or site.
If the confirmed course allows a student-proposed person or setting, send the pathway, objectives, dates, geography, role criteria, site criteria, and forms through the matching request. Our process guide explains how screening supports, but never replaces, program review.

There is no universal BSN clinical or field-experience total. Required hours vary by state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office.
