Your CV/resume. Who knows where you’ll end up in 15 years time depending on factors within and not within your control. You might be living in LA or Auckland or Tokyo and a potential employer there might (highly likely) recognise and respect a UNSW/USyd qualification but is likely to have no idea on what a UTS is.

generally employers don't care what uni you went to, just your qualifications and abilities. particularly when we're talking about 3 good unis

They definitely do, especially for jobs in areas such as law or anything business related. Go8 is a much better option if this is what you’re after, prestige matters.

If an employer actually cares that much about what uni you went to 15 years ago, then they’re probably pretty terrible at picking the right candidate. That is like ancient history by then. Once you’re in the workplace for several years, only one thing really matters when you apply for jobs - experience.

Uni prestige might matter in a small handful of places, but even then only for maybe the first couple of years.
