Nursing Affiliation Agreement Requests

At this time, we are only considering new affiliations for UCSDH employees and specialty areas of need. Students are not permitted to submit affiliation agreement requests. To initiate a request, please share the link below with your school's designated school/contract coordinator or administrative representative.

AHPEC-N Request Form

Once submitted, your school will receive a written decision regarding the affiliation request within 30 days. If the request is approved, schools of nursing will receive a nursing affiliation agreement application. Please be advised that finalizing a fully executed affiliation agreement may take approximately 6–12 months. We strongly encourage students to secure an alternative clinical placement in the event that an agreement is not finalized within the needed timeframe. 

Out-of-State Nurse Practitioner Programs

We cannot approve your NP programs unless proof is shown with our CA BRN approval. Before UC San Diego Health can enter into an affiliation agreement for clinical training with an out-of-state NP program, the program must first be approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN). Programs that have not received this approval are not permitted to place NP students in clinical settings within California.

Additional information from the California Board of Registered Nursing can be found at https://www.rn.ca.gov/education/outofstatenp.shtml
