As a 20 year old coming out of school, you are going to get a very standard offer that will only fluctuate slightly with the current market. Unless you're the world's expert in some very valuable algorithm that you developed in school, you don't have enough of an edge over your peers to negotiate much outside your already allotted salary band.
The only leverage you would have would be if you had another offer from Microsoft, Apple, or Google. But it would be notoriously hard to line up everything and get those offers in time.
As others have said, don't sweat it too much. Try to negotiate more on the relocation expenses/signing bonus to ease the pain of moving if that makes you feel better.
