A few things to consider: 1. Do you want to study in your home state or out of state? Cheaper vs. more expensive tuition. 2. Do you want a large college or small college experience? One way you can begin to narrow down the search is to use on line resources. Resources such as www.collegeboard.com and other college listing sites can be a great place to start. US News and World Report also has some good listings. The number one thing I feel you can do is to seek out local counseling services, psychologists, etc., and see if you can set up informational interviews. By visiting with those in the field, you will learn more about what it means to be in that profession. You can also learn which college programs are reputable and which programs to avoid. This will also begin your "professional" network by talking to professionals in your desired field of study. Believe me when I say, it truly is about "who you know" and not necessarily "what you know" when it comes to getting a job. In your area of interest, you will need the knowledge, however, knowing professionals who could be future employers can't hurt either. I hope this helps!

You have to get a Bachelors degree before you can get a Masters! Most schools offer both Bachelor of Arts AND Bachelor of Science programs in Psychology. My university required BSc students to courses on Anatomy and Physiology, as well as math (in addition to the Pysch curriculum). BA students took courses from the faculties of Fine Arts and/or Humanities, and could get their Math credits through Logic (plus all the Psych courses). In terms of your Masters, I'll post a link to the university caledar at my Alma Matter, so you can see the requirements for yourself. The best advice I can give someone wanting to pursue Graduate studies is to make a personal connection with all of your professors, and show interest in what you're learning, so that later they can write you good letters of reference. It also helps to have volunteer or work experience in the field you want to study. When it comes to choosing a college to do your undergrad, the most important things are cost and location. Any nationally-recognized, accredited college will offer a decent undergrad Psych program.
