If everyone posts their major and comp we can settle this pretty quick.

So you have no insight on what impact being a philosophy major might have had.
Sales and knowing how to run a business
If you go to a top tier school then you can be any major you want, from the hard engineering and business to the joke sociology and communications. You will either be set up for a job through networking, already have connections through family, or will be accepted to a graduate program. If you go to a less than school then you don’t get any of those last things and should chose your major wisely as the chance for success is a much tighter window.

So it’s worth taking out hundreds of thousands of dollars in loans to go to a top tier school?

that's not a function of the school, that's a function of their caste (as PH puts it).
a poor person might have the charisma to forge some serious networks at an expensive, elite school but if they do not the name on your bachelor degree fades pretty quickly unless you're a talented human being. people who go for philosophy degrees tend to be thoughtful, well rounded thinkers. a lot moreso than the stack of basic humans pounding out comp sci and accounting degrees. the world does need number crunchers, though
