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 King University students with candidate sourcing and documentation. Accreditation establishes the degree, not the course design or placement process.

This evidence snapshot should not be stretched into a school-policy claim. It confirms a nationally accredited baccalaureate nursing degree at King University on the verification date, while all placement and curriculum questions remain for the current program.
King University appears here because CCNE accreditation evidence supported its baccalaureate nursing degree on July 21, 2026. That source is not evidence that every student needs an outside site or that the school offers any named pathway. It also does not establish hours or placement policy.
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.
Prelicensure education typically relies on program-coordinated clinical rotations, affiliation agreements, faculty oversight, and approved sites. A student at King University should follow the current placement instructions first. Independent sourcing should begin only when the program explicitly permits it for that student's course and location.
An RN-to-BSN or other post-licensure field experience may apply baccalaureate competencies in a community, population, education, leadership, quality, or coordination setting. Use that framework only after King University confirms the pathway, course, student proposal process, and current approval criteria.
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.
The safe answer to the hours question is program confirmation. Required BSN hours vary by state, pathway, course, school, and catalog year, and the accreditation record provides no total. Have King University identify the controlling handbook, current degree audit, and course instructions before planning any experience.
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.
Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from King University's Bristol address. The program may apply state, site, licensure, affiliation, or delivery rules that accreditation does not show. Every proposed setting still needs program approval.
The statewide BSN guide for Tennessee can support local planning. Apply the exact pathway, course, geography, role, and site criteria confirmed by the program before treating any setting as a viable proposal.
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. King University may separately require agreements, compliance checks, or other review steps.
Confirm these items before outreach: the exact baccalaureate pathway and course; whether the program coordinates placement or permits a student proposal; the approved requirement and dates; eligible state and setting; candidate credentials; course objectives; conflicts; affiliation and compliance process; school and site forms; and submission deadline.
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.
BSNPreceptor is not affiliated with or endorsed by King University and does not speak for its nursing program. Candidate sourcing is not school approval. We cannot guarantee availability, placement, affiliation completion, acceptance, course progression, or any other result.
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. King 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 King 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.
