Hello MSN Students,

We'd love to hear from you! Please take a few minutes to share your honest feelings about how things are going in the nursing program using the link provided above. Your input is crucial and will help us improve the program for all students.

Alternatively, you may also reach out to your class representative, Maggie Schmit (mlschmit18@marianuniversity.edu), with concerns, feedback, or suggestions related to the overall operation of the MSN program and how we can better support the student body. This includes topics like resource availability, curriculum structure, and general program policies.

Please note the following important distinction:

✅ Appropriate Concerns for the form/Maggie: Program structure, student resource needs, general policies, and systemic support issues.

❌ Inappropriate Concerns for the form/Maggie: Issues related to an individual student's performance in a specific course (e.g., a grade dispute or concerns about a single assignment). For these individual, course-specific concerns, you must contact the course instructor directly. If escalation is required, please follow the formal reporting structure outlined in the Student Handbook.

The insights you share here will be discussed at our next Graduate Program Meeting, held on the second Friday of each month. If you'd like to join the conversation in person, feel free to email Dr. Janet Teske, the Graduate Program Director, at jjteske86@marianuniversity.edu.

We'll be sure to provide an update after the meeting to address your feedback.

Thanks so much,
The Nursing Department at Marian University

FNP Clinical Placement Information

FNP Clinical Placement Information

The information provided on these pages is subject to change. If you discover inaccurate information or broken links please inform the Clinical Placement Coordinator at clinicalpaperwork@marianuniversity.edu so updates/corrections can be made.

Clinical sites frequently used by Marian University are are listed below. This is not an exclusive list of agencies. We have 100+ affiliation agreements on file, so if there is an agency you are interested in working with that is not listed below, contact the Clinical Placement Coordinator. The Coordinator will review if there is an agreement on file, and if not inquire with the agency if it is possible to execute an agreement.

Please review the steps outlined in the link for the agency you wish to use for practicum. A Preceptor Request Form is needed for every request. Remember, a request is not confirmed until you have received an email confirmation from the Clinical Placement Coordinator.

You may notice that placement deadlines on agency websites are generally 15 days later than the deadline on the right hand column of the MO2 page. The Clinical Placement Coordinator needs time to prepare and submit requests to the agency. This buffer allows time to make sure all required information, such as CV/resume and agency specific paperwork is complete and ready to go by the submission deadline. Failure to submit the Preceptor Request form by the MO2 date may result in a missed opportunity with an agency.

- Select activity Preceptor Contact Log
  
  Preceptor Contact Log File
  
  This document is a helpful resource for organizing and documenting your preceptor search. If you encounter challenges in finding a preceptor, you will be required to submit a contact log before the Clinical Placement Coordinator can provide assistance.

  Family Nurse Practitioner Sample Scripts for Contacting Potential Preceptor File
  
  Not all agencies allow direct contact (cold-calling) to their preceptors. Review agency specific information under the "Clinical Information" section for guidelines.
  Please utilize your resources by networking with associates on your clinical rotations, ask your classmates and/or your current preceptor if applicable, and reach out to your clinical instructors before trying to contact individual preceptors using these scripts.
- Select activity Active Contracts
  
  Active Contracts File
  
  Attached is a list of active contracts that Marian holds with various agencies, which may be appropriate for an FNP practicum experience. Just because an agency is listed on the document, does not mean they will have a provider or specialty that will appropriately meet the practicum guidelines/requirements. You will need to research the agency/preceptor to determine appropriateness based on the guidelines presented on the Resources for Students - MSN page here in MO2. You may use this list to get ideas of places to look for a potential preceptor. This list is intended to be a tool to help with networking and research to locate a preceptor and does not guarantee a placement. The list is subject to change and is only guaranteed accurate at the time it was created. Efforts will be made to update the document as changes occur. If you have interest in a placement with an agency not on the list, please contact the Clinical Placement Coordinator at clinicalpaperwork@marianuniversity.edu to discuss your ideas.
