HS Senior Q's about Grad School

Applying to College
1

I am having trouble deciding between a more prestigious and expensive undergrad school like Wash U and some cheaper ones like Grinnell, Saint Olaf, and Iowa State U.

1.Does the name and prestige of the undergrad school matter when applying for grad school, or a job?
2.Is it better to have an A average and be in the honors program at a state school, or a C average at a more prestigious school?

I’m wondering if WashU is worth the $15,000 per year b/c I need $ for grad school too.
