Dedicated Student Success Support

Clinical Placement Support Services
As an online FNP student, you will benefit from stress-free clinical placements. Shortly after enrollment, you will need to complete a placement intake form. A placement specialist will then work with Carson-Newman to source and secure and a quality placement site and preceptor. Once the sites have been approved by the Department of Nursing, Carson-Newman will share the placement site details with you prior to placement.
