My team of four got into YC with not a college degree between us. Two of us had most recently gone to community college, one of us dropped out of the University of Washington, and one of our teammates had just done six months at USC. Granted, USC is a "good school," but if you have a strong team that can demonstrably work well together, you have a good shot of getting into YC. In our case, we'd been on a very competitive high school robotics team for four years and had done other tech projects together.
