FNP preceptor support for Yale University students

• Program: Family Nurse Practitioner
• School: Yale University
• Directory location: New Haven, Connecticut
• Verified pathways: MSN
• Official evidence checked: July 22, 2026
• Clinical focus: family and individual primary care across the lifespan
• Potential setting landscape: family practice, community health, pediatric primary care, internal medicine, adult and older adult primary care, reproductive or women's health, school or student health, and other approved primary care settings
• Approval authority: the student's current program

Current official pages support the program and pathway labels below. They do not establish the student's curriculum, admissions status, tuition, modality, or clinical approval process, so those details must be confirmed directly with the program.

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

Across-the-lifespan reasoning connects pediatric, adult, older adult, preventive, chronic, and reproductive care. The student should plan from the objectives rather than assume a fixed national rotation pattern. The current program retains the final decision on the required populations and setting fit.

No site category is automatically suitable. A community health center may offer broad age diversity, a pediatric practice may fill child health objectives, and an adult or reproductive health setting may address another need. The student's program must evaluate the complete proposal.

For this record, the official evidence names MSN. 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.

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.

Credentials start the review, but they do not finish it. We gather the prospective preceptor's license, certification, current primary care role, experience, patient population, site, and availability. The student's program applies its own criteria and makes the approval decision.

Begin with the geography the program approves, not an assumption based on the New Haven listing. Primary care capacity may be broader or narrower than the school location suggests. Every proposed clinician and site still needs program review.

For wider geographic context, read the FNP placement guide for Connecticut. It describes the state's primary care landscape without assigning a policy to Yale University 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

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.

FNP Preceptor has no affiliation with Yale 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.
