Do potential employers look at whether you went to a state school or a private school? Does it sway their decision?

As a New York native, state education would be a cheaper option. However, my #1 choice school is a private school in Pennsylvania. Do employers have a preference of which of these schools they would rather have someone go to? #college #future

Will extracurricular activities make college more difficult?

The constant hours of your nose in all sorts of textbooks could be grueling, but does doing an extracurricular activity (band, sports, clubs, etc.) help or hinder your success in college? #college
