What does graduate admissions look for in an undergraduate engineering student?

I am currently a high school senior who plans to major in computer engineering for my undergraduate degree. However, I have a growing interest in pursuing graduate school and I want to get involved in graduate level research in the future. So, I was wondering what graduate schools look for in an undergraduate engineering student? Does the specific college I go to for my undergraduate degree matter (In this case, I'm specifically deciding between Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or Syracuse University), or does the GPA and extracurriculars I get involved in matter more? #spring25
