BSN field-experience planning for Daytona State College

When a student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor, we support Daytona State College students with candidate sourcing and documentation. Accreditation establishes the degree, not the course design or placement process.

Use this snapshot as an identity and evidence check, not as a handbook. The accreditor record supports a baccalaureate nursing degree at Daytona State College; it cannot answer which pathways are active, how courses are delivered, whether field work applies, or who coordinates placement.

Confirm the current Daytona State College BSN requirements

As of the July 21, 2026 review, ACEN records supported an accredited baccalaureate nursing degree at Daytona State College. That is useful but limited evidence. It cannot be used to infer prelicensure, RN-to-BSN, modality, clinical hours, placement assistance, or approval criteria.

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, and program contact before defining a search.

Separate program-coordinated and student-proposed experiences

Program coordination is generally the rule for prelicensure clinical experiences. That protects course sequencing, site contracts, supervision, and regulatory oversight. Nothing in the accreditation record shows that Daytona State College allows student proposals, so the student should confirm the current placement process before contacting any professional or organization.

A confirmed RN-to-BSN or other post-licensure course can use an applied community, population, quality, education, leadership, or care-coordination experience. The objective determines the setting and mentor. Accreditation alone does not show that Daytona State College offers such a pathway or asks students to propose placements.

A field-experience proposal needs more than a willing contact. The person's expertise and the organization's work must support the approved objectives. Public health, community care, school health, occupational health, home health, hospice, nonprofit service, quality, coordination, and population health are examples subject to program review.

Confirm BSN hours instead of assuming a total

No fixed BSN clinical or field-experience total can be assigned to Daytona State College from accreditation evidence. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, state, and catalog year. The current catalog, handbook, degree audit, course materials, and placement office should resolve the requirement before a proposal is scoped.

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.

Plan an approval-ready proposal in Florida

Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from Daytona State College's Daytona Beach address. The program may apply state, site, licensure, affiliation, or delivery rules that accreditation does not show. Every proposed setting still needs program approval.

Use the Florida BSN field-experience overview to think through local setting categories and geography. It does not establish authorization or approval rules for Daytona State College; only the current program can do that.

Treat candidate sourcing and school approval as separate stages. We can organize role, credentials, site information, dates, objectives, availability, and requested documents for review. Daytona State College alone decides whether the person and organization meet current rules and whether all institutional steps are complete.

Use a current-course readiness checklist

Build the request from verified fields: current pathway, course, catalog year, applied objective, requirement, term, geography, site type, candidate role, credentials, placement ownership, affiliation requirements, compliance documents, school forms, and deadline. Do not fill gaps with another school's practice.

Independent BSN sourcing support for Daytona State College students

Once the current requirements and permission to propose are clear, our placement process uses them to identify and screen a possible person or site. We share candidate information for program review rather than presenting a match as approved. A request can begin at the matching form.

This is independent support, not a service operated, approved, or endorsed by Daytona State 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.

Questions

Frequently asked

When does BSN placement support apply to Daytona State College students?

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. Daytona State College makes every approval decision.

Does accreditation show which BSN pathway Daytona State College offers?

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.

How many BSN clinical or field-experience hours does Daytona State College require?

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.

Should a prelicensure BSN student find an outside placement?

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.

Is BSNPreceptor affiliated with Daytona State College?

No. BSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Daytona State College. We source and document possible candidates only when program instructions permit it, and we do not guarantee placement or approval.

Request a preceptor

Tell us the current BSN course. We'll review the fit.

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.
