Same here in Poland. Only the free universities are the good ones. Any paid-for private university is immediately considered worse and is very unlikely to result in a good job. All top 100 universities in the country are completely free.

And like the commenter above said - private universities will push through 90% of their students, so the degrees they get are worth close to nothing,no matter how much they paid. Meanwhile, the most prestigious schools in the country lose over 50% of the students in the first year because requirements are so high,and because they are not afraid of letting people go(they are not paying, so they are not entitled to anything). Out of 200 people signing up for an engineering course,only 20-30 people will actually graduate(and those engineers are sought after by every company in the country,because they are guaranteed to be good).
