I agree with what's been said. My view is that if you accept the responsibility for your education - for educating yourself - have a personal policy of learning in SPITE of any bad schools, bad classes, bad teachers, you will do great. Plus, you will undoubtedly meet many amazing teachers and students who are going to help lift you up regardless of the school you attend. Plus, as GeekChic9 said, you won't have the crushing weight of all those student loans. Well, you might still have the crushing weight of student loans but they won't be as bad.
GeekChic9 also made me think of something else. I don't know about her particular circumstances but the reality is that when people graduate from college they are often disappointed to learn they have to start their careers with low-paying entry level jobs. A degree does NOT guarantee a high level high-paying job when you graduate. But what it does do is help make you more promotable than others who don't have the degree.
