Accredited is not most important from top schools,.like CIT, not accredited.

Stanford is not ABET accredited for CompE, but the name carries more weight.


For MIT, CalTech, and maybe 5-10 additional top engineering programs, the program does not bother with AbET. They are the exception that proves the rule.
