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 West Georgia prepare an approval-ready proposal. The program remains the authority and no school policy is inferred from accreditation.

This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that University of West Georgia offers prelicensure, accelerated, RN-to-BSN, online, or another pathway. It also does not establish a field experience, hours, student sourcing, or site rules.
As of the July 21, 2026 review, CCNE records supported an accredited baccalaureate nursing degree at University of West Georgia. That is useful but limited evidence. It cannot be used to infer prelicensure, RN-to-BSN, modality, clinical hours, placement assistance, or approval criteria.
Start with the documents controlling the student's actual term. Confirm pathway, course purpose, dates, approved geography, setting type, candidate credentials, affiliation requirements, compliance items, and submission forms. Older catalogs or another school's process are not reliable substitutes.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure clinical placements are generally coordinated through the nursing program. If that is the student's pathway, use University of West Georgia'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.
When the student's current pathway is confirmed as post-licensure and the course authorizes a proposed experience, the search may center on community or systems work. Public health, education, leadership, quality, and care coordination are examples. The program must establish whether any applies at University of West Georgia.
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.
Baccalaureate nursing practice requirements cannot be reduced to one reliable number. Hours vary with the state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Ask University of West Georgia to confirm the student's current requirement in writing, then use that answer rather than an online comparison or a figure from another school.
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.
The directory records Carrollton, Georgia as the institution location. It does not determine the student's eligible placement area or authorize a site. Ask University of West Georgia to confirm state and setting boundaries, then evaluate a candidate for relevant work, credentials, availability, paperwork, and site participation.
Read the BSN preceptor and field-experience guide for Georgia for geographic context. Its examples are general and do not turn a person or site into an approved University of West Georgia experience.
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 West Georgia 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.
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.
This is independent support, not a service operated, approved, or endorsed by University of West Georgia. 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 West Georgia 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 West Georgia. 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.
