Not trying to matriculate into a top 5 school, but let's talk accredidation. Does an MBA not have weight to it if the school isn't lets say, AACSB accredited but is still accreditated, i.e. SACSCOC?

I am graduating in December with my Bachelors of Science in Cybersecurity. None of my work experience is in the related field, but I will also be getting my CompTIA security+ certification before graduation too.
