Does it really matter where you go to college?

I plan to major in piano and voice performance with a minor in psychology, and then start private music lessons. Does it matter where I go to college, or should I try to get into one that is more prestigious in the realm of music performance? I kind of want to go to a Christian college that is closer to home, but obviously they aren't really known for music performance so I'm just wondering what I should do.

How can I get started with making music?

I'm a freshman in HS & I want to pursue music production as a possible career in college, does anyone know how I can get an early start on that? I love music, specifically rap (hip-hop & R&B too), and I was wondering if anyone knew any good websites that I could get started on with making beats. I'm a fast learner, but since it would be my first time experimenting, beginner-friendly websites would be preferred :) Also if anyone has tips/knows any good YouTube channels that discuss this topic, that would be greatly appreciated!
