AGPCNP preceptor support for Drexel University students

• Program: Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner
• School: Drexel University
• Directory location: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
• Verified pathways: MSN and post-graduate certificate
• Official evidence checked: July 21, 2026
• Clinical population: adults and older adults with stable or chronic conditions that benefit from ongoing care
• Setting landscape: internal medicine, adult primary care, geriatrics, community health, long-term care, chronic disease management, and approved specialty primary-care settings
• Approval authority: the student's current program

A published AGPCNP page confirms a current pathway, not every operational detail around clinical education. Use the links below as the source record, then verify the student's course documents before contacting a preceptor or site.

Official Drexel University sources checked July 21, 2026 support the MSN and post-graduate certificate 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, MSN: Official page explicitly identifies the AGPCNP specialty (MSN in Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner).
• Official AGPCNP source 2, post-graduate certificate: Official page explicitly identifies the AGPCNP specialty (Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner Certificate).

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.

Longitudinal reasoning is the thread that connects adult primary care and geriatrics. The student should be able to assess risk, manage stable or chronic problems, revisit treatment plans, coordinate care, and respond to changes within primary-care scope. The program retains the final decision on fit.

The search can span ambulatory internal medicine, adult health clinics, geriatric practices, community clinics, long-term care, and specialty practices that deliver genuine primary care. We screen the work that happens there, while Drexel University decides whether the actual preceptor and site satisfy the course.

For this record, the official evidence names MSN and post-graduate certificate. We use that verified label only to orient the request. The student's own course documents must supply the setting, population, competencies, dates, geography, and preceptor criteria.

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.

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 track, and the certification bodies publish a 500-hour faculty-supervised eligibility floor. Neither figure is presented here as Drexel University's rule. Confirm the exact current requirement before sourcing.

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.

A useful candidate combines a relevant license or certification with day-to-day work in adult primary care, internal medicine, geriatrics, community health, long-term care, chronic disease management, or an approved specialty primary-care setting. Only Drexel University can accept that proposed match.

Begin with the geography the program approves, not an assumption based on the Philadelphia 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 Pennsylvania 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

A strong packet connects evidence to the course. Include the proposed preceptor's credentials and primary-care role, the site's patient mix and continuity model, the expected experiences, dates, schedule, and every program form the student has received.

Do the confirmation work before outreach: course and dates, approved location, clinical objectives, continuity needs, remaining hours, candidate credentials, and required forms. We use those facts to source carefully and submit a potential match for program review.

Nothing on this page is issued by Drexel University. AGPCNP 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.
