DNP preceptors and project sites for Texas Woman's University

Our role for Texas Woman's University DNP students is specific: identify a mentor, preceptor, or practice site that fits the current requirements supplied by the student. The program reviews the proposal, and no match is represented as approved before that review is complete.

Texas Woman's University DNP program snapshot

  • Program: Doctor of Nursing Practice

Treat this as an identity and accreditation snapshot, not as a statement of school policy. The official school website and the student's current course documents remain the sources for pathways, deadlines, hours, and placement rules.

Start with the current Texas Woman's University DNP requirements

We included Texas Woman's University because the current CCNE directory lists its Doctor of Nursing Practice program. The listing was checked July 21, 2026 and should not be stretched into an unsupported claim about track design or placement procedure. Verify those items directly with the program.

Begin with the course number, term dates, required practice setting, mentor or preceptor credentials, location limits, and every form your program expects. If the course includes both a scholarly project and direct-care practice, separate those needs so each proposed person and site can be evaluated for the work they will actually supervise.

Make the scholarly project the placement spine

The scholarly project turns a practice question into an approved change and a measurable evaluation. That work needs more than an address. The site must offer the relevant population, operational access, and enough support to carry the project through. Hospitals, ambulatory practices, public health teams, long-term care settings, and community programs can fit when the project and program rules align.

The project mentor must fit both the proposed work and Texas Woman's University's current credential rules. A DNP-prepared nurse, physician, nurse executive, quality leader, or another qualified practice expert may fit in some programs, but the title alone never establishes eligibility. We screen for role alignment and send the documented candidate to the program for its own review.

Map supervised practice hours before sourcing

At least 1,000 supervised post-baccalaureate practice hours are part of AACN's DNP framework, but that is not a school-specific course total. Prior qualifying master's hours and the hours assigned to the DNP pathway vary. Ask Texas Woman's University to confirm the student's remaining requirement and build the placement request from that answer.

For a direct-care pathway, the plan may require a board-certified nurse practitioner or physician in the student's population focus. Systems and leadership hours may call for a different practice expert and setting. The DNP clinical hours guide explains the cumulative post-baccalaureate framework without assigning a school-specific total that the evidence does not support.

Build an approval-ready match in Texas

A local search can start in Denton and extend to eligible sites elsewhere in Texas when the program and state authorization rules allow it. Geography is only one filter. The proposed site must also support the course objectives, the mentor must meet current credential and conflict rules, and both parties must be willing to complete the school's approval documents.

For the broader project-site and practice landscape, read the DNP placement guide for Texas. It adds geographic context without changing the school's authority over the student's course and site.

Before the proposal reaches Texas Woman's University, we collect the facts that commonly drive review: who the candidate is, where the work would occur, what the person would supervise, and when the experience is available. The school may still require contracts, compliance checks, authorization, or other documentation that only it can approve.

What to confirm before outreach begins

  • Your exact DNP pathway and practicum course
  • The remaining approved practice hours shown by your program
  • Whether the need is a project mentor, direct-care preceptor, systems mentor, or a combination
  • Required credentials and disallowed relationships
  • Approved state, setting, population, and project parameters
  • Submission deadline and all site or preceptor forms

A prior term's instructions may no longer control the next placement cycle. Confirm the checklist with the current handbook or placement office, save the applicable forms, and send that version with the request. We do not fill gaps by borrowing policies from a different school.

Independent DNP placement support for Texas Woman's University students

Bring the current course documents into the search from the first step. We need the dates, geography, setting, population or systems focus, project question, credential rules, and submission forms. See how placement works; the final decision always remains with the program.

PreceptorDNP is not affiliated with or endorsed by Texas Woman's University, and nothing on this page is issued on the school's behalf. We independently search for candidates and cannot promise that a person or site will be found or approved. When the confirmed requirements are available, request a match to begin the search.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does Texas Woman's University approve the preceptor or project mentor?

Texas Woman's University makes its own approval decisions. We identify and document a candidate around the current requirements you provide, then the program reviews the person, site, and paperwork.

How many DNP practice hours does Texas Woman's University require?

AACN sets a floor of at least 1,000 supervised post-baccalaureate practice hours, but the total and treatment of prior qualifying hours varies by program. Confirm your current Texas Woman's University degree audit and handbook rather than relying on a generic number.

Can you find both a DNP project mentor and a clinical preceptor?

Yes, when the current course requirements call for both roles. We screen each candidate for the work that person will supervise and submit the match for program approval.

Are you affiliated with Texas Woman's University?

No. PreceptorDNP is an independent placement service. We do not represent Texas Woman's University, and we cannot guarantee that the school will approve a proposed mentor, preceptor, or site.
