Just wanted to say that not having attended prestigious university doesn’t make you low status. Especially in todays society where having degree from prestigious university is way too common and most high status people did not attend one.
Status is just subjective perception of where we place our values. I personally know many people who look down at people who attended university for many different reasons.
So you can easily be viewed as high status because you are that underestimated underdog from humble beginnings having courage to work on something important.
And in many ways, any achievement you will have will be much more valuable given that you have no credentials because you will be defying expectations.
