We hope you’re having a great 4th of July—whether you’re grilling with friends, watching fireworks, or finally giving yourself a minute to breathe.
But if you’re a nurse practitioner student, we know the truth:
There’s rarely a real “day off.”
While others are enjoying summer holidays, NP students are often juggling:
- A full-time job
- Family responsibilities
- Schoolwork
- And—yes—the never-ending search for FNP preceptors
Finding clinical placements can be one of the most stressful parts of the NP journey, especially for Family Nurse Practitioner students. You’re expected to study, work, and manage life—and then somehow track down a preceptor too? It’s no wonder many students feel like they never get a break.
At Preceptor Tree, we get it. We’re here to make that one part of your journey easier, faster, and more human. No generic databases. No endless waiting. Just real help from real people who’ve been there.
A Little Encouragement
If you’re spending this holiday scrolling for FNP preceptors instead of lighting sparklers—you’re not alone. And you’re not behind.
You’re just doing what every great NP student does:
Finding a way to keep going, even when the system isn’t built to make it easy.
We’re here when you’re ready—and we’ll be working through the summer right alongside you. And if you’re an IMG, check out Clerkship America.
🎆 Happy 4th of July from Preceptor Tree.
