I have a BSEE and went to grad school for EE after a two year break. I forgot how much I loved software over my break and wish I had majored in CS for grad school. I dropped out of an MSEE program after one year, got a job writing software and haven't looked back.
As far as the "grad school" or "startup" question, I'd think it involves several things. Where is your startup now? If it's moving along, maybe you should stay with it. Where is your heart at? If it's not in grad school, or the work you might do after, then why stay? My heart wasn't in my master's program. What grad school are you in? If I got accepted into <insert prestigious school's name here> and had funding, I'd consider giving it a shot. But that's just me.
