So getting a master’s at a top school is sort of like compensating for going to a mediocre undergraduate school?

Also, when applying for a master’s program, what do they look at? Just undergraduate GPA? I mean, is it possible to go to Columbia University for master’s if you went to Texas State for undergraduate?
