I think experience is what really counts and that if you take full advantage of everything a good design school has to offer you will gain a lot of valid experience that way.
You can have access to a lot of opportunities and challenges in school where as on the job you might be stuck producing banners or some other remedial task for a long time, not having the opportunity to learn anything.
You need to be part of a talented creative team to learn on the job, school's more flexible because it is a learning environment. You won't get to learn about most of the "harsh" realities of the work place, but that's ok, you're getting paid for that now =)
