That’s the OP’s whole point. You wouldn’t know. So is it worth the extra $$$ for something that in terms of actual career will make no difference or possibly hinder rather than help reaching one’s goals? Probably not.

I think it depends a lot on what you want out of college. Do you see it as an “experience” to extract the most out of from the teaching, environment, peers, opportunities? If so, a “better” school might give you that. Or, do you see college as simply a means to an end - a good job doing X - to get through by the simplest route possible? In that case, go to where you’ll have the easiest time. No shame in that. It’s all a matter of personal goals.
