Do I need to go to a top college to be successful in computer science?

I'm currently a freshman in college majoring in computer science. The college I am going to is a smaller, local college that definitely is not prestigious or world renown. I was wondering how much influence the college I went to will have on my future attempts at getting a job. I have a passion for tech and coding and learning and I want to do very well in this field. Also, I just landed my first internship which is exciting. But, will my degree from this little college cause me any trouble later? Or am I just overthinking this?

There might be a starting height cap and a starting wage cap difference but ultimately you will not want for jobs if you are doing software engineering at all, many companies hire on the spot for passing a basic programming test and will put you in at some pretty great wages.  


Note a Bachelor's degree opens a whole lot more doors than an Associates Degree. You will see your starting wages pretty much double in some regions for the difference.
