I get that. I'm just pointing out a situation where school recognition plays a role.thats because it has more to do about them than you.
Edit: There are plenty of other scenarios where it does play a factor. But the vast majority it does not.

Best network and electronics/avionics tech I ever hired graduated from ITT. Knew more about anything related to electrical engineering than one guy I hired from Stanford.As an IT manager, I'd say a degree from MIT is better than a degree from University of Phoenix Online.
So in some regards, it does matter.
How many people that design airplanes went to ITT vs MIT, though?Best network and electronics/avionics tech I ever hired graduated from ITT. Knew more about anything related to electrical engineering than one guy I hired from Stanford.
Pretty sure ITT never had an aerospace engineering program, so pretty moot point....not to mention I was discussing a Stanford graduate. But hey, welcome to SVTP!How many people that design airplanes went to ITT vs MIT, though?
Degree?My daughter is looking at a few universities to continue her education as well as run cross country and track. They are Division II schools, but a couple of them are really nice and we still have more to go look at.
She has outstanding grades and could get into the University of Oklahoma on grades alone, however, she would probably not run for them. She could possibly walk on at OU but she is being offered athletic scholarships at Division II schools so we're looking primarily at Division II universities.
In your opinion does it matter where a college degree comes from?
I agree with this. A few of my friends went into nursing and the schools they chose had some pretty good interning opportunities that let them gain experience at nearby hospitals while also completing their degree. That way, when you're done, you have at least a couple years of experience for the resume.I would choose the University/College with the best networking and coop opportunities. So yes, it does matter. Every single major company in North America recruited from the university I went to. Many of those didn't offer coops or recruit from other schools except a select few.
Good idea but she should find out beforehand how many of her credits will transfer. Universities frequently have limits on the number of credits they will accept from other schools.For Nursing, absolutely not. You can leave a job today and have 10 offers tomorrow as long as your licensed without any marks on your license. I've been an RN since 2001. I would strongly suggest she take her general education classes at a Jr. College for a fraction of the cost, unless money is no object. Why pay 4 year college prices for required general Ed classes?
When I was in nursing school there was a local Jr College I took all my English, Statistics, Public Speaking,.....etc classes at.
