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 can help students at University of Houston - Clear Lake prepare an approval-ready proposal. The program remains the authority and no school policy is inferred from accreditation.

The compact record deliberately separates an accreditation fact from placement assumptions. University of Houston - Clear Lake is included because of its baccalaureate nursing accreditation evidence, not because the record proves prelicensure, RN-to-BSN, modality, hours, or student sourcing.
The accreditation fact for University of Houston - Clear Lake comes from ACEN and was verified on July 21, 2026. Its scope is degree accreditation. The source does not prove a particular pathway, course format, field requirement, student proposal process, review timeline, or candidate standard.
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 University of Houston - Clear Lake'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 University of Houston - Clear Lake's requirement. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office.
The BSN clinical hours guide explains why pathway and state matter without assigning an unsupported total to this institution. Once the program confirms the course requirement and placement ownership, planning can focus on the setting, person, objectives, location, and documents that actually need review.
A school location and a field-experience location are separate facts. Although University of Houston - Clear Lake is listed in Houston, Texas, the student should verify state authorization, course geography, licensure considerations, and affiliation requirements before outreach. The person and organization must also support the confirmed objectives.
For broader setting context, review the BSN field-experience guide for Texas. 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.
Treat candidate sourcing and school approval as separate stages. We can organize role, credentials, site information, dates, objectives, availability, and requested documents for review. University of Houston - Clear Lake alone decides whether the person and organization meet current rules and whether all institutional steps are complete.
A practical readiness checklist includes the active catalog year, degree audit, course number, pathway, objective, confirmed requirement, dates, approved geography, setting category, candidate qualifications, placement ownership, affiliation needs, compliance items, required forms, and review deadline. Mark every unresolved item for program confirmation.
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.
This is independent support, not a service operated, approved, or endorsed by University of Houston - Clear Lake. 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. University of Houston - Clear Lake 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.
