Graduate Programs Not Requiring the GRE Good or bad?

[Vanadium 50]

I don't know if there is a caveat here

That's why I specified EE. There are a bunch of associates programs in "lighting engineering" and the like. To get a feeling, the number of schools in Indiana with a BS in EE and no MS or higher appears to be three: Indiana Tech, Valpo and Rose-Hullman.

Also Vanadium I didn't read the fine print, but this link claims there are 1,074 accredited engineering programs in the US:

I don't know if there is a caveat here but with those numbers I would think the St. Cletus College problem is present as well.

I bolded the word accredited. The reason professional schools go through an accreditation process is specifically to avoid the St. Cletus College problem.

So that, perhaps, is another option rather than the GRE for physics programs... get an institution like the APS or even ABET to accredit physics programs and then no on ewould have to take the GRE. But that comes with a whole lot of complications including introducing restrictions on an academic, non-professional subject, as well as cost. It's probably easier to just get incoming students to write the GRE in most cases.

ASU has a very strong EEE department as far as I understand, especially semi-conductor engineering.

Thanks for the input. I guess I shouldn't be too worried about whether or not the GRE is required then for the embedded systems program.
