"Go over" can have several meanings. (For example, it can mean "to visit", for example "I will go over to my friend's house.")
But from the context of this question, I think I know what you mean.
OK,
"Go over" = to review
("I will go over the information in the report.")
"Go into" = to talk about the details, or to examine the details of some topic.
("Now I will go into why this information is important to the project.")
"Look over" = to check for mistakes, or examine some information with a purpose in mind.
("I will look over the application to see if there are any mistakes.")
"Look into" = to investigate, like a detective.
("I will look into the rumor that the company is failing.")
All 4 of these phrases are common in jobs and corporate environments, as well as in school and education.
People use them so often that you will learn them quickly.
幸運を!

Hello,
We use the word "over" when something is more general and the word "into" when something is more detailed.
Some examples:
I want to go over the plan for tomorrow.
I want to go into the details of what we are doing tomorrow.
I want to look over some properties for sale.
I want to look into buying this house.
Hope this helps!
