Accredited by who?

Published

I'm researching different programs and know that to excel I must attend a school that's accredited. My question is by who..? I've heard the NLN, but are there any other organization that are important for a school to be accredited by? My goal is to earn my BSN then ultimately move on to MSN.

The only accreditation that matters when it comes to nursing is NLN or CCNE.

The previous poster is correct. The two accreditation bodies that matter are NLNAC and CCNE. Each one has a search feature to find out what schools they accredit.

CCNE - http://www.aacn.nche.edu/Accreditation/

NLNAC - http://www.nlnac.org/home.htm
