Graduating from an unaccredited nursing program, BSN options?

[m2736185]

So...I was always under the impression once you have an RN license it doesnt matter where you get it from as long as you are enrolled in a BSN program you could get a job at the hospital. Well, I plan on moving back to NY and I realized all of a sudden hospitals are now not only requiring you graduate from an accredited program, but an NLN accredited. Are there any NLN online programs there that will take credits from unaccredited schools? I know university of pheonix will, but they are rediculously overpriced and are just CCNE accredited.

Actually, the CCNE accreditation is the "higher" level. Don't eliminate CCNE schools from your list of possibilities. Most of the university-based programs are switching to CCNE.
