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 Oakland University. Confirm each of those details with the current program.

The directory uses the official FNP pages available on July 22, 2026. They support MSN, DNP, and 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, MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate: The current official institution or catalog source identifies the FNP MSN, DNP, 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.

A practical search may consider several parts of the primary care landscape: family practice, community health, pediatrics, internal medicine, older adult care, reproductive or women's health, school health, and approved focused practices. We do not promise that a named site will be accepted before review.

Official evidence currently supports MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate. The degree or certificate name is useful context, yet it cannot stand in for the clinical checklist. We ask the student to provide the current requirements before any potential preceptor is presented.

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

The hour plan must come from the student's program record. Nationally, NTF recommends a 750-hour direct patient care minimum for an NP population focus, and the FNP certification bodies publish a 500-hour faculty-supervised eligibility floor. Neither figure is presented here as Oakland University's rule.

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.

A useful candidate combines a relevant license or certification with day-to-day work in family practice, pediatrics, internal medicine, adult or older adult care, community health, reproductive health, or another approved primary care setting. Only Oakland University can accept the proposed match.

The directory lists Oakland University in Rochester Hills, Michigan. 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.

Pair this record with the FNP placement guide for Michigan when considering travel and setting supply. The guide is not a list of guaranteed sites, and the program remains the approval authority.

• 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

Document the match in the program's own terms. The file should show candidate qualifications, primary care role, population and site context, objective alignment, dates, and availability. The school can require additional review or documents that we cannot approve.

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.

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