I attend to a community college that has just recently implemented a nursing program. Its fairly new and has yet to gain its national accreditation. What would that mean for me if I graduate from a program that is not accredited? Would I only be able to take jobs in my state of residence?

It could mean that your degree will not be recognized as being valid if the school is not accredited. Presumably your community college will be taking the steps to gain national accreditation. You might ask what their timetable is for achieving accreditation. Accreditation means that the school meets certain national standards of excellence in its program and teaching.

After you graduate, you may have trouble getting a position due to their requirements of having a degree from a nationally accredited institution. If your institution gets accredited by the time you graduate, you’ll be in good shape. Just ask them. It’s kind of like a doctor getting their PhD in a third-world country and then practicing in Beverly Hills, CA. People can get degrees anywhere, but the respected institutions provide a certain level of quality and prestige and the hiring person will know the bar was set higher at an accredited institution.

No but if it was accredited that means people would trust you and your work more so is all.
Think of it this way-If you got a bachelors from Harvard you will stand out more than a small college you got the same degree from but you should still be able to get a job anywhere.
