[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will play:

Nursing-absolutely not, same salaries for Ivy or CC trained nurses, same options for NP/PA school(many which are online).

Lawyers--seems this one is the most important to land high paying jobs, though still think being connected(through family or friends) and good social skills come a long way

Medicine-absolutely not, MD/DO the same, i guess if you are a cash pay derm/psych r plastic surgeon and Ivy will get you more customers but charisma. how you do your work and patient referrals do more for you.

Social work--not really-cash pay patients seeing online degree therapists also a thing here, more about your marketing skills than therapy skills.[/quote]

Disagree about medicine.  It does matter- depending on what specialty and where you want to work.  Where you go to school can absolutely affect what type of residency you match with (and if you get your first choice) and what institution hires you afterward.  Most doctors are not private practice, therefore they are subjected to the hiring process by a panel like other professionals, where they do consider your credentials. [/quote]
