ME is the most popular engineering program. You can use it as a reasonable proxy for the total number of schools with ABET accredited programs in the US.

There are 344 ABET accredited ME programs in the US.

That leaves about 500+ programs that are either more stringent or less stringent than the “gold standard”. It’s still an argument for the OP doing their own DD.
