<human>: Reddit, straight out of college and in the workforce, is it better to graduate from a small private school with previous internship experience and most likely a guaranteed job, or from a well-known public school with no guaranteed internship or job?

Here is my scenario. 

I'm a college sophomore majoring in mechanical engineering at a small private school known for its dentistry and pharmacy programs, but not its engineering. The school guarantees four-year graduation, which I am more than on track for, as well as a guaranteed co-op with a company which will most likely hire post-graduation. In other words, a secure job. [Price: $50,000/yr]

My parents are pressuring me to transfer to a well-known public university nearby. The school is well-known for engineering, but upon transferring, I would have very little network aside from friends who already attend. There would be no internship or guaranteed job. Additionally, my units may not transfer over in their entirety, forcing me to stay additional time. [Price: $20,000/yr]

If I do not transfer, my parents' financial planners estimate they will each have to work an additional three years to pay for my tuition. When I am financially stable, they expect me to pay half the cost of my tuition back to them, so it's not entirely their money. It's mine, too.

I sound as if I am loath to transfer, which is true.
