AGACNP preceptor support for University of Michigan-Flint students

• Program: Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner
• School: University of Michigan-Flint
• Directory location: Flint, Michigan
• Verified pathways: MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate
• Official evidence checked: July 21, 2026
• Clinical population: adults and older adults with complex, acute, critical, or unstable conditions
• Approval authority: the student's current program

Current official pages support the program and pathway labels below. They do not establish the student's exact curriculum or the school's clinical approval process, so the search should pause until those requirements are confirmed directly with the program.

The directory uses the official AGACNP pages available on July 21, 2026. They support MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate as the pathway set for this record. Any detail that is not explicit in those pages remains unclaimed and must be confirmed with the program.

• Official AGACNP source 1, MSN and DNP: Official program page identifies AGACNP MSN and DNP milestones in the BSN-to-DNP pathway.
• Official AGACNP source 2, post-graduate certificate: Official certificate page identifies the Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner certificate.

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 placement spine is adult-gerontology acute care, not primary care. The experience should expose the student to adults and older adults with complex, acute, critical, or unstable conditions and support the competencies named by the approved course. Adolescents belong in the plan only if the program explicitly places them inside the student's population scope.

Depending on the objectives, the search may include ICU or critical care, step-down or progressive care, emergency care, hospitalist or inpatient medicine, trauma and surgical services, or an inpatient specialty such as cardiology, pulmonology, or nephrology. No setting is automatically acceptable. The program must decide whether the patient mix, acuity, clinician role, and available activities fit the course.

For this record, the official evidence names MSN, 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.

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.

Do not calculate this student's need from a national number. NTF recommends at least 750 direct patient care hours for an NP track, while AGACNP certification eligibility materials refer to a minimum of 500 faculty-supervised clinical hours. The current program determines the applicable total, course allocation, simulation treatment, and remaining 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.

Look for an acute-care NP or physician whose real clinical practice supports the required patient acuity and activities. Then compare that candidate with the current credential and site rules. A strong clinical match is still a proposal until the program reviews it.

Flint, Michigan 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.

Use the AGACNP placement guide for Michigan for broader ICU, step-down, emergency, and inpatient context. Any actual candidate and site must still pass the student's current program review.

• 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.

A search request works best when it includes the active course, dates, location limits, acute setting, adult-gerontology population, competencies, hour need, preceptor rules, and approval documents. See how the process works, then bring the current program materials into the first conversation.

Nothing on this page is issued by University of Michigan-Flint. 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.
