Anyone can be a model as long as they have the right attitude, measurements are not set in stone people look for a unique look not just a few numbers. If you are happy with the work, and don't expect overnight success, you will be fine.
I have heard a lot of bad thing about SOME (not all) modelling agencies and how they make you pay for photos and photo sessions before they take you on then never give you any work. Always check with the local Better Business Bureau in teh US or Trading Standards in the Uk or Similar organisation elsewhere.
I think a better starting place before you go to agencies is if you have a friend who is reasonable with a camera (do not have to be a professional or even that good just okay) Just take 100 photos of yourself in different poses, clothing and backgrounds then pick out 10-20 nice photos. You can then use this as a portfolio, and even better instead of printing them which cost you money every time, host them on a website and get some business cards print with the website address on and just hand these out instead. This is a far cheaper way of doing it and with no RISK. You should never have to pay to get a job if you do there is a high chance it is a scam.
However if you would like a personal portfolio site please contact me and I will set you on up for free. I can design you a fully personalised flash website with as much or little information and then host it for you. This site can contain a gallery of your photos, personal information, list of work, contact details, etc or if you prefer just a couple of photos and nothing else. It can be password protected and all images will be protected as is humanly possible, or the photos can be available to download.
Examples of work can be provided on request. Just message me here if you want, I am a professional website designer but have lots of free time (and enough money) so I am currently doing free sites for small bands, small artist etc, basically anyone who could not afford them otherwise. I have my own hosting server so can offer hosting servers or you can host the site yourselves. No images sent to me will be used for anything other than your site and I will not give anyone your detail or link to the site. You will have complete control and the site can be removed or changed at any time. This is not a scam and I will design a site for FREE, I do not need the money, and enjoy working. If you do want it message me you can tell me what you want and how you want it done and I will help.
Depending how old you are I may require parents permission before i will do any work.

I have an interview with a modeling agency from Las Vegas in a few weeks. Yay! Um..well you don't have to go to modeling school. It just depends on the agency, some want you to have experience, and others don't. You have to be 5'8" and up. You don't "have" to be anorexic, but some agencies do want you to be thin. Others agencies like plus size. You just have to find the right one for you. Trust me, those models you see in magazines aren't as thin as they look. In every magazine you see, the pictures have been airbrushed. They make the pictures look better. So, don't be fooled by that. And, not all agencies want the same look. So, just be yourself. I never went to a modeling school, but I model. And, it pays well too. Just be sure you like it, it's not fun all the time. Well, good luck!

You can go to a modeling school, but they don't always work. You need a profile and some profession pictures of your body and face. Also you have to be taller then 5:8 and be thin unless you're going for a plus size modeling career, you need to be proportioned well.

Very tall. 5'8 and up. The schools are kind of a joke. I suggest going to open calls and such. Apply for the next season of Americas Next Top Model.

how tall you have to be, I am not sure, but shorter models can model for other products that the taller ones can't.
There are modeling agencies around the globe, that conducts modelling courses too, and from these courses, they select those that they want to retain on project basis.

first, don't eat for about a year.
then, starve yourself for a while longer.
thirdly, addict yourself to crystal meth.
fourth, lose any self-respect you may still have regarding your body and showing all parts to strangers and creepy old men.
and finally, when you have no soul left, prepare to commit any sexual acts deemed necessary in order to land the job.
oh, and you can't be more than 14.
