This snapshot reports only what the linked official program evidence supports. It does not assign a delivery format, clinical sequence, hour total, placement responsibility, preceptor rule, or approval timeline to Indiana University Indianapolis. Confirm each of those details with the current program.

We verified the listed DNP and post-graduate certificate evidence on July 21, 2026. Each link belongs to the institution or its official catalog and names the AGACNP specialty. The student's present course materials still control the clinical request.

• Official AGACNP source 1, DNP: Official page explicitly identifies the AGACNP specialty (Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner: DNP Nurse Practitioner: Doctor of Nursing Practice: Programs & Degrees: Academics: IU School of Nursing: Indiana University).
• Official AGACNP source 2, post-graduate certificate: Current official certificate page explicitly lists Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner as a post-master's graduate certificate specialty.

These citations are included for verification, not as an endorsement of our service. Read the current official page and ask the program to confirm any requirement that affects the proposed preceptor or site.

The right match gives the student supervised work with acute, critical, and medically complex adults and older adults. Population focus, acuity, and clinical tasks all matter. A program may define a place for adolescents, but that boundary must come from the student's current requirements rather than a generic assumption.

High-acuity opportunities often sit in ICU, progressive care, emergency, inpatient medicine, and specialty consult services. The best category depends on the gap in the student's approved plan. We do not promise that a named service, facility, or site will satisfy Indiana University Indianapolis before review.

For this record, the official evidence names DNP and post-graduate certificate. We use that verified label only to orient the request. The student's own course documents must supply the setting, population, competencies, dates, geography, and preceptor criteria.

A useful clinical request names what the student must actually do under supervision. Define the target population, acuity, care setting, procedures or skills, and expected level of participation. That detail lets a prospective preceptor assess fit without making promises on the program's behalf.

Hour language needs careful attribution. NTF recommends at least 750 direct patient care hours for an NP track, while ANCC and AACN Certification Corporation eligibility sources set a minimum of 500 faculty-supervised clinical hours. Only the program can translate those standards into this student's current course and remaining need.

Use the AGACNP clinical hours guide for national context and the preceptor requirements guide for screening questions. Neither guide replaces the program's current instructions.

Role alignment comes before convenience. A board-certified AGACNP or acute-care NP may fit, and a physician in critical care, hospital medicine, emergency medicine, or a relevant inpatient specialty may fit when the program allows it. The current program criteria determine the answer for each candidate.

Indianapolis, Indiana identifies the school record, but it does not define a clinical territory. A student may need to consider nearby or more distant acute-care services if the program permits travel. We confirm the allowed location before screening sites so outreach stays inside the student's actual boundaries.

The AGACNP placement guide for Indiana adds state-level context about acute and inpatient settings. Use it to frame the search, then apply the exact location and approval rules confirmed by the program.

• The exact course, clinical objectives, term dates, and remaining approved hours
• The approved geography, adult-gerontology population, patient acuity, and setting
• The proposed clinician's license, certification, specialty, acute role, and availability
• The site's service line, patient mix, and opportunities tied to the objectives
• Every current preceptor, site, compliance, and submission form supplied by the program

Document the clinical match in the program's own terms. The file should show candidate qualifications, adult-gerontology acute-care role, site context, objective alignment, dates, and availability. The school can still require separate site review, agreements, compliance items, or other steps that we cannot approve.

Do the confirmation work before outreach: course and dates, approved location, clinical objectives, setting and acuity, remaining hours, candidate credentials, and required forms. We use those facts to source carefully and submit any potential match for program review.

Nothing on this page is issued by Indiana University Indianapolis. AGACNP Preceptor independently looks for candidates against the requirements the student supplies, and the program retains full approval authority. A search may not produce an available or approved match.
