I work in higher ed (currently as faculty, previously in administrative roles) and the answer I would give you is that it depends on the school.
Some schools offer their faculty/staff discounted tuition (some undergrad only, others offer tuition discounts for graduate level work). If you could work on a Masters while you're working for the school, that would probably be ideal.
Like Senusret said, you'll need at least a Masters to be considered for many administrative positions, so if it's a field you're actually considering, going right to graduate school might be the best thing. Especially if you can find a school that offers graduate assistantships in that field.
