What to look for in accreditation?

[SwoRN]

Hello,

I have my ASN and want to work toward my BSN-MSN. I'm wondering what I should be looking for when I look at college accreditation. I'm a military spouse and move often so doing a local program seems useless as I will have to move before I am done. I eventually want to get my CNP. Thanks for any information!

You should look for NLNAC or CCNE. I would not enroll in any program that doesn't have either of those accreditations.

In addition to NLNAC or CCNE, also look for regional accreditation. National and regional acceditation are both important.
