what’s the impact on Cal Tech only being accredited for mechanical engineering?

Probably minimal, since Caltech does not offer civil engineering, the other engineering majors it does offer (chemical, electrical (mainly areas other than power infrastructure)) are not generally ones where people want PE licensing to sign off on designs used by the general public, students are probably unlikely to be aiming for the patent exam, and Caltech has enough reputation that external accreditation probably adds no reputational benefit.
