When a student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor, our role is to source and document a possible match for University of Massachusetts Boston review. The accreditation record does not identify pathway, modality, hours, or placement responsibility.
Last updated July 2026
This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that University of Massachusetts Boston 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 directory basis is CCNE evidence, verified July 21, 2026, for baccalaureate nursing education at University of Massachusetts Boston. Treat curriculum pathway, field work, hours, affiliation rules, placement responsibility, and candidate eligibility as separate facts that require current school sources.
Before outreach, identify the student's exact pathway and course, then collect the current catalog page, handbook section, degree audit, course objectives, placement forms, and contact instructions. Ask the program whether it coordinates the experience or explicitly permits the student to propose a person or site.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure clinical placements are generally coordinated through the nursing program. If that is the student's pathway, use University of Massachusetts Boston'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.
If the current program confirms a post-licensure or RN-to-BSN pathway and a student-proposed field experience, the work may focus on community health, population health, education, leadership, quality, care coordination, or another applied objective. This conditional example does not claim that University of Massachusetts Boston offers that pathway or requires outside placement.
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.
No fixed BSN clinical or field-experience total can be assigned to University of Massachusetts Boston 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.
Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from University of Massachusetts Boston's Boston 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 Massachusetts 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. University of Massachusetts Boston may separately require agreements, compliance checks, or other review steps.
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.
Our independent sourcing process starts with the verified requirement packet and explicit student-proposal permission. We look for a candidate whose role and setting appear aligned, document the facts, and submit them to the program's process. Use the request form when those instructions are ready.
BSNPreceptor works independently and is not affiliated with or endorsed by University of Massachusetts Boston. School names are used descriptively. A sourcing request creates no guarantee of a candidate, placement, approval, graduation, licensure, or another outcome.
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 Massachusetts Boston 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 University of Massachusetts Boston. 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.
