AGPCNP preceptor support for Florida Atlantic University students

• Program: Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner
• School: Florida Atlantic University
• Directory location: Boca Raton, Florida
• Verified pathways: MSN, DNP, 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

Current official pages support the program and pathway labels below. They do not establish the student's exact curriculum or the school's clinical approval process, so the search should pause until those requirements are confirmed directly with the program.

Official Florida Atlantic University sources checked July 21, 2026 support the MSN, DNP, 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 program page lists current AGNP primary care MSN admissions and curriculum.
• Official AGPCNP source 2, DNP: Official BSN-to-DNP page lists the AGPCNP concentration.
• Official AGPCNP source 3, post-graduate certificate: Official certificate page lists Adult/Gerontological Nurse Practitioner among current post-graduate certificates.

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 placement should reflect the primary-care needs of adults across aging, from routine prevention through multimorbidity and frailty. That does not make every adult-facing clinic eligible. The proposed patient mix and activities must support the student's approved competencies.

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 Florida Atlantic University decides whether the actual preceptor and site satisfy the course.

The record identifies MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate. Those credential labels help route the inquiry, but they do not reveal the student's entry point, course sequence, remaining hours, or clinical dates. Bring the exact course and current plan of study into the search so a pathway label is never treated as a policy.

Use a one-page clinical brief to explain the remaining need: course, dates, adult-gerontology population, continuity, setting, required experiences, and credential criteria. A specific brief respects the preceptor's time and gives the program a clearer proposal to evaluate.

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 Florida Atlantic 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.

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 Boca Raton campus listing. Primary-care capacity may be broader or narrower than the school location suggests. Every proposed clinician and site still needs program review.

Our AGPCNP placement guide for Florida explains where longitudinal adult and older-adult care may be found across the state. It does not establish a clinical boundary or acceptance rule for this school.

• 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

An approval-ready proposal identifies the clinician's credentials, current primary-care role, practice setting, patient population, 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.

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.

AGPCNP Preceptor has no affiliation with Florida Atlantic 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.
