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 Pennsylvania College of Technology students identify and document a candidate for program review. Pennsylvania College of Technology controls approval, and accreditation alone does not establish the pathway, hours, or placement model.

This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that Pennsylvania College of Technology 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 ACEN source included Pennsylvania College of Technology 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.
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.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure clinical placements are generally coordinated by the nursing program. A prelicensure student should use Pennsylvania College of Technology's current placement office and assigned process. Outside help is appropriate only if current written instructions explicitly permit the student to propose a site or preceptor. Accreditation does not tell us whether that exception exists.
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 Pennsylvania College of Technology's offerings.
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 Pennsylvania College of Technology's requirement. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office.
Read how BSN practice requirements vary, then verify the active course with Pennsylvania College of Technology. Planning should begin only after the program confirms the amount, experience type, placement process, location, candidate role, setting, and forms.
Williamsport, Pennsylvania is the directory location for Pennsylvania College of Technology; 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.
Our Pennsylvania BSN guide gives a state-level view of possible community and systems settings. The current program still decides whether the student's pathway, location, candidate, site, and documents are acceptable.
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.
A complete planning brief names the student's actual pathway and course and records the approved experience, requirement, dates, location, setting, person, credentials, objectives, proposal permission, forms, conflicts, affiliation steps, compliance items, and submission sequence.
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.
