Our MSN Direct Entry program provides clinical experiences through traditional faculty-led rotations and/or a precepted model.
Upon admission, you will complete a form to help guide your clinical placement. This includes identifying local sites where you would like to complete clinical hours or locations of potential career interest.
Our clinical placement team will assist with securing a preceptor or placing you in a faculty-led rotation. We partner with a variety of clinical sites, ideally within 100 miles of your location. While student input is valuable, specific placements or preceptors cannot be guaranteed.
Meeting all clinical preparedness requirements is mandatory prior to placement. This includes immunizations, background checks, drug screening, CPR certification, and site-specific onboarding, as applicable.
Some clinical components, such as basic skills checks or faculty advisement, may be completed virtually through synchronous sessions.

BLS pay estimates calculate the median annual wage for various occupations. Per the BLS the median wage for an occupation is: "The wage at which half of the workers in the occupation earned more than that amount, and half earned less. Median wage data are from the BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics survey." Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational Outlook Handbook 2024. BLS median wage estimates do not represent entry-level wages and/or salaries. Multiple factors, including prior experience, age, geographic market in which you want to work, and degree level and field, will affect career outcomes, including starting salary and earnings as an experienced employee. Herzing neither represents that its graduates will earn the median salaries calculated by BLS for a particular job nor guarantees that graduation from its program will result in a job, promotion, particular wage or salary, or other career growth.
