When a student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor, our role is to source and document a possible match for Coe College review. The accreditation record does not identify pathway, modality, hours, or placement responsibility.
Last updated July 2026
Accreditation is the basis for listing Coe College, but accreditation is not a course instruction. A student still needs the current catalog, degree audit, handbook, and placement materials to verify the pathway, field requirement, hours, location, and approval process.
The CCNE source included Coe College in its accredited baccalaureate nursing records when this roster was checked on July 21, 2026. That establishes degree-level accreditation only. It does not establish a pathway, delivery format, field-experience requirement, hours, deadline, mentor rule, or placement model.
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.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure clinical placements are generally coordinated through the nursing program. If that is the student's pathway, use Coe College's clinical office rather than assuming an outside search is needed. Only written current permission to propose a person or site creates a role for independent sourcing.
Post-licensure field work can differ sharply from prelicensure rotations. If the program verifies an RN-to-BSN or similar course and permits the student to propose a site, the experience may involve community, population, education, quality, leadership, or care-coordination objectives. No such offering is inferred here.
Match the person and setting to the applied work the course actually requires. An experienced RN may fit many community or systems experiences, while another qualified professional may fit when the program permits. Clinics, public programs, schools, employee health, home services, nonprofits, quality, and coordination teams remain conditional examples.
There is no universal BSN clinical or field-experience total across schools and pathways. Required hours vary by state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Do not use a number from another institution, an older handbook, or a different pathway as Coe College's requirement. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office.
A broad explanation is available in the BSN clinical hours guide, but the student's course documents control. Confirm pathway, experience type, placement ownership, setting, person, state, and forms before outreach.
Use Cedar Rapids, Iowa as directory context only. A student's actual planning area should come from current Coe College guidance about authorized states, course location, site eligibility, and affiliation. Even inside an approved area, a willing person or organization is not automatically eligible.
For broader setting context, review the BSN field-experience guide for Iowa. 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.
Before submission, organize the candidate's professional role, active credentials, relevant experience, site, availability, relationship to the student, and fit with each course objective. Attach current school forms rather than a generic template. The program may still need contracts, compliance materials, authorization checks, or other approvals.
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.
The BSN placement workflow separates requirement review, permission confirmation, candidate sourcing, documentation, and school approval. After the current course permits a proposal, request a match to start an independent search.
This is independent support, not a service operated, approved, or endorsed by Coe College. We have no authority to accept a person or site and cannot promise that a suitable candidate will be available or that a proposal will pass program and site review.
It 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. Coe College makes every approval decision.
No. The accreditation evidence establishes a baccalaureate nursing degree on the verification date. It does not prove prelicensure, accelerated, RN-to-BSN, modality, hours, field requirements, or placement policy.
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.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure placements are generally program-coordinated. Use the school's current placement process. Outside sourcing is appropriate only if the program explicitly permits the student to propose a person or site for the current course.
No. BSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Coe College. We source and document possible candidates only when program instructions permit it, and we do not guarantee placement or approval.

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.
