Cori’s Answer

It's not just about your GPA. Ivy league schools are high competitive with their admissions. They will of course look at your grades, but they will also look at the courses you chose, extra curricular activates, hobbies, community service, employment, etc.
They are seeking the best applicants who are well rounded citizens and outstanding academics. Build upon all of these aspects regardless of where you complete your studies.
Also, if you have a particular school in mind, contact them and see if you can find someone to speak to from the student ambassador's program (most places have these groups). These students can give you insight about what it is like applying to their schools.

In general, you do need a certain GPA to get into graduate school. There might be exceptions depending on the program of your choice. Whether or not this scenario presents itself, visiting these institutions and speaking to the professors is helpful.
