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 Wichita State University. Confirm each of those details with the current program.

The source set was checked on July 22, 2026. It identifies DNP FNP evidence for Wichita State University. Source language can change, so keep the current program instructions that govern the student's term and ask the program to resolve anything the public page leaves open.

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

The proposed experience should reflect family and individual primary care from childhood through older adulthood. That does not mean every student needs the same population split or that every all-ages clinic fits. The patient mix and supervised activities must support the approved objectives.

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.

For this record, the official evidence names DNP. 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.

Course objectives are the bridge between a pathway label and a workable placement. Pair each objective with the population, setting, primary care activity, and supervision it requires, then ask the program whether the proposed combination is eligible before treating it as final.

Two national standards are often confused: the NTF recommendation of at least 750 direct patient care hours per NP population focus and the 500 faculty-supervised clinical hour floor used in FNP certification eligibility. A program can require or distribute hours differently. Ask Wichita State University to confirm the student's actual total 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.

Preceptor screening asks whether the clinician's credential and real work align with the approved FNP objectives. Primary care nurse practitioners and physicians may be search candidates, but the program controls the final eligibility rules and may define additional acceptable roles.

The directory lists Wichita State University in Wichita, Kansas. 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 Kansas 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

Give the program a proposal it can evaluate without guessing: who the clinician is, where that person practices, which ages and needs are served, what the student could do, when supervision is available, and which current forms apply.

Once the current checklist is clear, send the course, term dates, approved geography, required populations and setting, remaining hours, candidate criteria, and forms. Our placement process uses that brief to look for a possible match before the program evaluates it.

Nothing on this page is issued by Wichita State 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.
