• Program: Family Nurse Practitioner
• School: Long Island University
• Directory location: Brookville, New York

• Approval authority: the student's current program

Treat the pathway list as an evidence boundary, not a summary of school policy. The official pages establish the FNP credential routes shown here, while the current handbook, syllabus, and program contact remain the authorities for hours, sites, preceptors, forms, and deadlines.

The directory uses the official FNP pages available on July 22, 2026. They support post-graduate certificate as the pathway set for this record. Any detail not explicit in those pages remains unclaimed and must be confirmed with the program.

• Official FNP source 1, post-graduate certificate: The current official institution or catalog source identifies the FNP post-graduate certificate pathway evidence.

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 strong FNP practicum supports clinical reasoning across ages rather than relying on a single broad label. Patient population, health promotion, common illness, chronic condition management, development, aging, and follow-up can all matter, but the program decides which experiences belong in this course.

Start with the missing competencies, then choose a setting. Family practice can offer breadth, pediatrics can strengthen child health, internal medicine can support adult care, and community or reproductive health may fill defined gaps. Formal eligibility still belongs to Long Island University.

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

A useful clinical request names what the student must actually do under supervision. Define the target ages, patient mix, primary care setting, skills, continuity needs, and expected participation. That detail lets a prospective preceptor assess fit without making promises on the program's behalf.

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

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

The clinician should actively provide primary care to the lifespan population the student needs. A title without matching practice is not enough. We document the candidate and setting for Long Island University to consider rather than declaring either one approved.

The directory lists Long Island University in Brookville, New York. That is a planning anchor, not a statement about where students may complete clinical work. Confirm the student's authorized geography before outreach, since licensure, travel, site access, and program rules can change the practical search area.

Our FNP placement guide for New York explains where primary care across different ages may be found across the state. It does not establish a clinical boundary or acceptance rule for this school.

• The exact course, clinical objectives, term dates, and remaining approved hours
• The approved geography, lifespan populations, primary care setting, and required experiences
• The proposed clinician's license, certification, specialty, primary care role, and availability
• The site's practice setting, patient mix, and opportunities tied to the objectives
• Every current preceptor, site, compliance, and submission form supplied by the program

A strong packet connects evidence to the course. Include the proposed preceptor's credentials and primary care role, the site's patient mix, the expected experiences, dates, schedule, and every program form the student has received.

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

Nothing on this page is issued by Long Island University. FNP 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.
