“After college I am hoping go into Navy doing something with engineering and hopefully work for company doing aerospace related research then somehow end up at NASA”

I have a neighbor who received his EE degree from USC, was NRTOC and did his Navy time as a Surface Warfare Officer, and has been with NASA since he got out. So here’s one data point for you.

If you want a school with strong connections with NASA and its supporting contractor industries, I would suggest you look at University of Alabama at Huntsville. The school is a mile from Redstone Arsenal, where NASA Marshall Space Flight Center is located. The government and contractors hire UAH students for internships and offer jobs for graduates.
