A truly exceptional person will succeed no matter what university they go to, but the average person still gains opportunities by having that elite branding.
But there certain careers or companies that hire almost exclusively from elites. For example, when asked how to get into a top consulting firm, a current employee responded go to an Ivy league.

I don't know what your definition of success is but I don't think paying MBA school loans could be considered a good measure of success. It might matter for certain careers. For instance, the Supreme Court only has lawyers from Harvard and Yale
... but I think the point has to be made that just because a person graduated from an elite school does not mean they are more intelligent or better prepared for work.
But the average person can't go to an elite university (generally)...
so it's a catch 22...
I would disagree with this.. i feel that many elite universities are filled more with hard working average or slightly above average people looking to get the elite branding than truly exceptional people.
which is not a bad thing. as in the case of the turtle and the rabbit.. slow and steady wins the race
