Owens nursing school loses accreditation | Can I get a job if I was an Owens nursing student?

According to the Findlay Courier, Owens Community College's associate degree registered nursing program was denied its continuing accreditation this year from the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission's board of commissioners. 

The Owens nursing students can still take their Ohio licensing exams, and the school remains accredited with the State of Ohio, but the program lacks the important accredition that allows students to transfer to a four-year university or obtain a job.

The problem remaining is the number of students who would have transferred to another school had they known about the Owens nursing school accreditation problem, as well as how long Owens Community College has known that they were not accredited with the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission. Students are also concerned that they will not be able to transfer to a four-year college or university, and whether or not earning a degree from a non-accredited school will hurt their chances of obtaining a job. Can you still get a good job if you were an Owens nursing student?
