Preferably you want to go to a school that has a decent astrophysics department (have all the core physics courses you need + the astronomy/astrophysics courses)… Or a department with a physics major/astronomy minor…etc

For physics or astronomy you need a higher degree if you wish to get a good job as there are close to zero opportunities for someone with just a BS in physics to work in physics.
Otherwise, a BS in astronomy or physics may not get you further than being a tour guide at the local planetarium.
