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

Official Bradley University sources checked July 21, 2026 support the MSN and DNP pathway record. Public program evidence answers whether the pathway is represented here, but the program must answer the separate questions about objectives, geography, hours, eligibility, and approval.

• Official AGPCNP source 1, DNP: Official page explicitly identifies the AGPCNP specialty (Adult Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP) (DNP) | Bradley University Catalog).
• Official AGPCNP source 2, MSN: Official page explicitly identifies the AGPCNP specialty (Adult Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP) (RN/MSN) | Bradley University Catalog).
• Official AGPCNP source 3, MSN: Official page explicitly identifies the AGPCNP specialty (Adult Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP) (BSN/MSN) | Bradley University Catalog).

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 continuity at the center of the AGPCNP request. The student needs supervised primary-care work with adults and older adults, including health promotion, chronic disease management, medication review, and age-aware follow-up. The approved course objectives determine whether a particular practice fits.

Start with the missing competencies, then choose a setting. Adult primary care and internal medicine can support longitudinal volume; geriatrics and long-term care can add frailty and functional assessment; community health can add access and population context. Formal eligibility still belongs to Bradley University.

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

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

National figures are context, not a Bradley University requirement. The 2022 NTF standards recommend at least 750 direct patient care hours for an NP population track. ANCC and AANPCB eligibility materials use at least 500 faculty-supervised clinical hours as a floor. Programs may set different totals and distributions, so confirm the student's exact AGPCNP requirement with the program.

Use the AGPCNP 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 current criteria and makes the approval decision.

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

Pair this record with the AGPCNP placement guide for Illinois 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, adult-gerontology population, continuity objectives, and setting
• 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, adult-gerontology primary-care role, site context, objective alignment, dates, and availability. The school can require additional review or documents that we cannot approve.

A search request works best when it includes the active course, dates, location limits, primary-care setting, adult-gerontology population, competencies, hour need, preceptor rules, and approval documents. See how the process works, then bring the current program materials.

We do not represent Bradley University and have no authority to approve a clinician, site, schedule, or clinical plan. Our independent role is limited to searching and documenting a possible match. Availability, review time, and the final program decision cannot be guaranteed.
