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

We verified the listed MSN and DNP evidence on July 22, 2026. Each link belongs to the institution or its official catalog and identifies the FNP specialty. The student's present course materials still control the clinical request.

• Official FNP source 1, MSN and DNP: The current official institution or catalog source identifies the FNP MSN, DNP 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.

Keep lifespan primary care at the center of the FNP request. The student may need supervised care involving pediatric, adult, older adult, preventive, chronic, episodic, and reproductive health objectives. The program's current course materials determine the required mix and how it must be documented.

The search can span family medicine, community clinics, pediatric offices, internal medicine, adult and geriatric primary care, reproductive health, and other settings that deliver genuine primary care. We screen what happens there, while University of Rochester decides whether the actual preceptor and site satisfy the course.

A MSN and DNP listing tells us which FNP route appears in the official source set. It does not tell us where a student may complete clinical work, who arranges a placement, or what the program will approve. Those answers belong in current program guidance.

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 University of Rochester to consider rather than declaring either one approved.

Rochester, New York identifies the school record but does not define a clinical territory. A student may be able to consider nearby or distant practices only if the program permits it. We confirm those boundaries before screening candidates.

For wider geographic context, read the FNP placement guide for New York. It describes the state's primary care landscape without assigning a policy to University of Rochester or claiming that a named practice accepts students.

• 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

An approval-ready proposal identifies the clinician's credentials, current primary care role, practice setting, patient populations, availability, and connection to the course objectives. It also includes the forms supplied by the student. This organization supports review but cannot replace any program step.

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 University of Rochester. 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.
