A published AGACNP page confirms a current pathway, not every operational detail around clinical education. Use the links below as the source record, then verify the student's course documents before contacting a preceptor or site.

As of July 21, 2026, the official links below identify MSN and post-graduate certificate for the AGACNP specialty at Neumann University. That supports directory inclusion and pathway labeling only. It does not authorize us to infer a practicum rule from a degree name.

• Official AGACNP source 1, MSN and post-graduate certificate: Current official graduate nursing page identifies AGACNP master's and certificate study.

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.

A suitable AGACNP experience is defined by acute clinical work, not by a convenient job title. Adults and older adults should present with unstable or complex conditions that require acute assessment, diagnosis, management, transitions, or critical-care reasoning. The course objectives determine whether a particular service fits.

Potential settings include medical, surgical, cardiac, or neurologic intensive care; progressive care; emergency departments; hospitalist teams; and inpatient specialty services. A long-term acute care setting may also fit particular objectives. We screen the clinical substance first and leave formal eligibility to the program.

The record identifies MSN and post-graduate certificate. Those credential labels help route the inquiry, but they do not reveal the student's entry point, course sequence, remaining hours, or clinical dates. Bring the exact course and current plan of study into the search so a pathway label is never treated as a policy.

Use a one-page clinical brief to explain the remaining need: course, dates, adult-gerontology population, acuity, setting, required experiences, and credential criteria. A specific brief respects the preceptor's time and gives the program a clearer proposal to evaluate.

Two national benchmarks are often confused: the NTF recommendation of at least 750 direct patient care hours per NP population track and the 500 faculty-supervised clinical hour floor used in certification eligibility. A student's program can require or distribute hours differently. Ask Neumann University to confirm the actual AGACNP total and approved balance.

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.

Preceptor screening asks two separate questions: is the clinician qualified for acute adult and older-adult care, and does the program permit that person for this course? We can gather licensure, certification, specialty, setting, and role details. Only Neumann University can make the approval decision.

The directory lists Neumann University in Aston, Pennsylvania. That location is a planning anchor, not a statement about where students may complete clinical work. Confirm the student's authorized geography first. Search radius, travel, licensure, facility access, and program rules can all affect which acute-care opportunities are realistic.

The AGACNP placement guide for Pennsylvania 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

Before submission, assemble the candidate's license and certification details, current acute role, site and service, population and acuity, schedule, and fit with each objective. The program may request additional documents or decline the proposal. We never treat a complete file as a guarantee.

Bring the current syllabus or checklist, the student's schedule and geography, the adult-gerontology acute-care objectives, the remaining approved hours, and the candidate forms. That evidence keeps the search aligned and gives the program a clear proposal to consider.

AGACNP Preceptor has no affiliation with Neumann University. We help students search for potential acute-care preceptors and sites, subject to the program's current rules and final approval. No page, conversation, or submitted form creates a guarantee.
