<p>so. Is it better to go to a good 4 year school then on to graduate school and be a lot of money in debt or go to a 4 year school where you can go there for practically free and then go to graduate school from there and not be in debt. If you have good grades in any college can you still get into good graduate schools?</p>
<p>Go to the best school you can afford. If you can get out of undergrad with no debt, you’ll be way ahead of the game. And, yes, with good grades, good experiences, and good recs, you can absolutely get into grad school from the “lesser” undergrad. You’re going to make your undergraduate experience, not the institution you pick.</p>
