Final answer:

Attending a non-accredited school does not typically result in paying more for professional licensing, which is the least likely issue to arise compared to credit transfer and degree recognition challenges.

Step-by-step explanation:

The issue least likely to arise if attending a school that is not accredited is c. you will have to pay more for your license. Accreditation primarily affects the recognition of credits and degrees by other institutions and eligibility for professional registries, rather than the cost of professional licensing directly.

An accredited school has undergone a rigorous process to ensure its educational programs meet certain standards. This is important for students as the credits and degrees earned can be recognized by other schools and employers. If a school is not accredited, students may face challenges such as transfer credits not being accepted by another school (a) or an employer not recognizing the degree (b). It also may impact whether a graduate is eligible to be registered with certain professional bodies (d).

While tuition costs and fees for licensure can vary, they are not typically connected to school accreditation status. Thus, attending a non-accredited institution does not directly lead to paying more for a license.
