Question about accreditation.

Alright, so my friend told me that if an institution is not accreditted by the national league for nursing (NLN). The graduates will not be employed by major hospitals. This was her scenario, a graduate from stanbridge college in irvine transferred to west coast university. Once he graduated, he applied to St. Joseph's but was declined employment. Her reason for this was that, west coast university is not accreditted by the National League for Nursing (NLN).

My question is, does it really matter if it is accreditted by the NLN just to be employed? If so, why pay a high amount of money for an education that will not acquire a job/career?

In my opinion, I thought that as long as a school was accreditted. There is a degree. That person is more than qualified. The accreditation only depends upon which institutions accept transfers or credit for certain classes.

Can anyone give input on this for me?
