Student Placement Request Process
Effective July 1, 2020, applications for clinical placement will only be accepted from ARNP students in the University of Iowa College of Nursing and PA students in the University of Iowa College of Medicine. We’re making this change because the demand for ARNP/PA student placements exceeds UI Health Care’s capacity.
As capacity allows, we will attempt to accommodate ARNP clinical placement needs for UI Health Care employees who are currently enrolled in non-UI programs that will graduate on or before May 31, 2021.
Deadlines for Submitting Information:
June 15 for Fall
October 15 for Spring
March 15 for Summer

Special circumstances and exceptions: We will consider placement for UI Healthcare employed ARNP students enrolled in programs not offered by the UI College of Nursing, including neonatal nurse practitioner, women’s health nurse practitioner, and certified nurse midwife programs. The department chair will need to send a request agreeing to the clinical hours in the department. Requests should go to christine-gust@uiowa.edu.
If any potential ARNP student would like guidance on choosing an educational program based on their needs, please contact maria-lofgren@uiowa.edu or Mary Dirks at mary-dirks@uiowa.edu
