Psychology Major

Hi everyone!! So I wanted to ask this sub because I felt like you guys would know best. So I am very interested in psychology and am considering majoring in it. The question is, does it matter what school I go to for psychology undergrad. I fully intend going to grad school, but I was thinking about going to a cheaper, less selective university for my undergrad so that I could save money. Or is that a bad idea? Are there specific schools I should go to for psychology (public, private, etc) or does it not really matter?

Thanks!

First - what is your end game, MA, PsyD, or PhD? What do you want to do and where? What is your state for residency? All of those will determined what is the best trajectory for you.
