I know this thread is a couple months old but wanted to chime in for those considering Colorado Mesa University, CMU’s program is ABET accredited (just google Colorado Mesa ABET and you’ll get to the right info). Also, what they told us when we visited is that the mechanical engineering degree is offered as an extension of CU Boulder and that your diploma comes through CU Boulder. You save money by paying CMU tuition for everything but the classes in your major. Then for those classes, you pay CU Boulder tuition levels, but at least you still only pay CMU housing and fees (much cheaper than CU Boulder).
