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 Phoenix 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 Phoenix is included because of its baccalaureate nursing accreditation evidence, not because the record proves prelicensure, RN-to-BSN, modality, hours, or student sourcing.
The directory basis is CCNE evidence, verified July 21, 2026, for baccalaureate nursing education at University of Phoenix. Treat curriculum pathway, field work, hours, affiliation rules, placement responsibility, and candidate eligibility as separate facts that require current school sources.
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.
If the student's confirmed pathway leads to initial RN licensure, the program generally coordinates clinical experiences. Begin with University of Phoenix's assigned-placement process. An external search is suitable only when the current course documents explicitly allow the student to propose a site or preceptor for program review.
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 University of Phoenix confirms the pathway, course, student proposal process, and current approval criteria.
Site fit follows the confirmed course objective. Community clinics, public-health services, school or employee health, home health, hospice, nonprofit programs, care coordination, quality, and population-health teams can be considered when allowed. An experienced RN or another relevant professional may fit, but the school must approve the person's role and credentials.
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 University of Phoenix identify the controlling handbook, current degree audit, and course instructions before planning any experience.
Use the BSN hours overview for a general framework, not for a school-specific figure. A useful brief records the confirmed requirement, its learning purpose, the acceptable setting, the supervision method, and whether the program coordinates placement or permits a proposal.
Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from University of Phoenix's Phoenix address. The program may apply state, site, licensure, affiliation, or delivery rules that accreditation does not show. Every proposed setting still needs program approval.
Use the Arizona BSN field-experience overview to think through local setting categories and geography. It does not establish authorization or approval rules for University of Phoenix; only the current program can do that.
The program needs a proposal it can evaluate, not just a contact name. Build the file around course fit, candidate qualifications, site capacity, dates, supervision, geography, conflicts, and requested documents. Any affiliation, compliance, authorization, or site condition remains with University of Phoenix and the proposed organization.
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.
We source against confirmed requirements only when the program permits a student proposal, then document a possible match for school review. The steps are described on how it works. Use the request form when the current instructions are available.
Nothing on this page is issued by University of Phoenix. BSNPreceptor is an independent service, is not affiliated with or endorsed by the institution, and cannot approve the student's person, site, or paperwork. We also cannot guarantee that a match will be found or accepted.
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 Phoenix 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 Phoenix. 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.
