Contrary to marketing materials, it really doesn't matter where you go as long as you get the degree...and it really doesn't matter after you get a few years of work experience. Once you get past the Ivy League schools, Duke, Vandy, Stanford and a very few highly ranked public institutions like UVA...the name on the diploma is pretty irrelevant... even though people who attended school X or whatever would argue otherwise.
Depends on the major and what you want to do. For some majors, like Architecture for example, school name matters for getting that first job (even if you have an incredible portfolio). And the first job + school builds your pedigree, which is important for designing certain building types.
