What kind of grad school?

You need to strongly consider why you're going to school.

Grad school is a significant investment in time and money

Assuming I'm willing to invest the time and money, is it possible to apply to grad school to see what happens? If I get into a top school I would certainly consider going, but I wouldn't waste my time applying to lesser schools. How can I get recommendations to explore my potential opportunities?

You make it known that you are interested in pursuing higher ed to people you wish to ask. Them to tactfully and politely ask key players in your career who can speak to your work and tell a story to the adcom. Then you quit later if you get in and decide to go.

Schools don't care if you do what you wrote you would
