Getting a job after Tulane?

Hi everyone!
I was accepted to Tulane two months ago EA. I’m really considering it (loved it at the visit) and I love everyone else I’ve talked to in the class of 2021 so far, but the thing keeping me from committing is my concern about getting a job after college. I want to work in a large city after graduation- meaning NYC, Boston, Philadelphia, LA, SF, Miami, etc. My concern about Tulane is that it’s a smaller school and a large sum of people have never heard of it and therefore may not hire me because of this.
I’m worried that even with a high GPA, if I go to Tulane it may be difficult for me to find a job in a city outside of the South after graduation. I would love to spend my college years in NOLA, but cannot see myself living in the South afterwards.
Could an alumnus or current student comment on this?
Thank you so much!
