I was just wondering.. does the uni you go to affect the type of degree/job opportunities you can get upon completion of the course?

For example, would someone at UNSW get a better degree and have a better chance at securing a job over someone who goes to somewhere like Notre Dame? (not saying Notre Dame is crap or anything)

No, prestige is a very irrelevant thing to regard when choosing a university or course.

It's what you make out of the degree, that will get you the job opportunities and etc.

People from UNSW/USYD/ANU - Yes! Prestige is extremely important.

People from Wollongong/Macq/UTS/everything else - Lol no, nobody cares about prestige.

You're a low life human being, at least he got into what he wanted.
I'd like to see you try to get into law, you imbecile.

It's a factor, albeit not a predominant one.

It is a factor, but the GPA you attain and the professional experience (internships, work experience) that you complete during your degree are far more important.
