What is the best way to learn GR with Mathematica as an undergrad?

Yes. It handles them, and prints them so they look right and it can show either the symbolic form, or actually carry it out if you have specified things like the metric tensor, etc. It can also handle Einstein summations. I could send you a notebook with some examples if you give me your email. I would send a pdf; since you don't have the package.

There are some Mathematica programs implementing GR calculations at this link:
