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 help Delta State University students identify and document a candidate for program review. Delta State University controls approval, and accreditation alone does not establish the pathway, hours, or placement model.

This evidence snapshot should not be stretched into a school-policy claim. It confirms a nationally accredited baccalaureate nursing degree at Delta State University on the verification date, while all placement and curriculum questions remain for the current program.
The directory basis is CCNE evidence, verified July 21, 2026, for baccalaureate nursing education at Delta State University. Treat curriculum pathway, field work, hours, affiliation rules, placement responsibility, and candidate eligibility as separate facts that require current school sources.
Start with the documents controlling the student's actual term. Confirm pathway, course purpose, dates, approved geography, setting type, candidate credentials, affiliation requirements, compliance items, and submission forms. Older catalogs or another school's process are not reliable substitutes.
For a confirmed prelicensure pathway, the normal starting point is the program's coordinated clinical-placement process. Students should not bypass assigned rotations or contact sites independently unless Delta State University expressly authorizes a student proposal for the current course. The baccalaureate accreditation listing proves no exception to that general practice.
When the student's current pathway is confirmed as post-licensure and the course authorizes a proposed experience, the search may center on community or systems work. Public health, education, leadership, quality, and care coordination are examples. The program must establish whether any applies at Delta State University.
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.
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 Delta State University's requirement. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office.
The BSN hours guide can help a student ask better questions about pathway and course structure. It cannot calculate a Delta State University requirement or establish that a student proposal is allowed. Those answers belong to the current program.
The directory records Cleveland, Mississippi as the institution location. It does not determine the student's eligible placement area or authorize a site. Ask Delta State University to confirm state and setting boundaries, then evaluate a candidate for relevant work, credentials, availability, paperwork, and site participation.
For broader setting context, review the BSN field-experience guide for Mississippi. 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.
Candidate willingness is only the beginning. An approval packet should explain the role, credentials, setting, relevant work, supervision, availability, course alignment, and paperwork status. The program can then apply its current site, affiliation, compliance, conflict, and candidate rules.
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.
Our role is limited to independent candidate sourcing and documentation when the program permits it. BSNPreceptor is not affiliated with or endorsed by Delta State University, cannot waive any school or site requirement, and does not guarantee placement or approval.
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. Delta State University 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 Delta State University. 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.
