| Posted about 5 years ago NLNAC, just like RN schools. However, accreditation is not required for a program to be accepted by the state Board of Nursing. If so, then graduates are eligible to take the NCLEX-PN. Employers only care if you have a license. They don't care if your school is accredited or not. |

| Posted about 5 years ago A real concern would be if you were planning on continuing your education for RN. There is a possibility that your credits might not transfer.
