When a student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor, Viterbo University students may request independent candidate sourcing. Program review stays final, and directory inclusion proves no particular pathway or field requirement.

This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that Viterbo University 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 CCNE source included Viterbo University 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.
Do not begin with a generic BSN placement template. Ask the program to verify the pathway, course, required role, learning objectives, eligible setting, geography, credentials, paperwork, and whether a student-proposed candidate is allowed. That keeps outreach within the school's process.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure clinical placements are generally coordinated through the nursing program. If that is the student's pathway, use Viterbo University'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.
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 Viterbo University 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.
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.
Use LaCrosse, Wisconsin as directory context only. A student's actual planning area should come from current Viterbo University guidance about authorized states, course location, site eligibility, and affiliation. Even inside an approved area, a willing person or organization is not automatically eligible.
Our Wisconsin 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.
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. Viterbo University may separately require agreements, compliance checks, or other review steps.
Confirm these items before outreach: the exact baccalaureate pathway and course; whether the program coordinates placement or permits a student proposal; the approved requirement and dates; eligible state and setting; candidate credentials; course objectives; conflicts; affiliation and compliance process; school and site forms; and submission deadline.
Independent support is most useful after the student turns the current handbook and course instructions into a precise request and verifies permission to propose. See how sourcing works, then use the request form with those details.
BSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Viterbo University. We do not act for the institution, decide eligibility, or guarantee that a person or site will be found or approved. Program-coordinated students should use the school's placement process.
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. Viterbo University 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 Viterbo University. 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.
