A specialist degree is required in most States for an individual to work as a school psychologist, although a few States still credential school psychologists with master’s degrees. A specialist (Ed.S.) degree in school psychology requires a minimum of 3 years of full-time graduate study (at least 60 graduate semester hours) and a 1-year internship. Because their professional practice addresses educational and mental health components of students’ development, school psychologists’ training includes coursework in both education and psychology.

The top job is a full university professor, or a licensed clinical psychologist if you go into that particular discipline. Both require a doctorate degree. Thus, expect to spend an extra 4-7 years in graduate school for training once you get your bachelor's degree.

A B.A., probably with a major is Psychology. An M.A. and Ph.D. in Psychology. An M.A. or Master's of Social Work will get you into the field but not to the top. However, you don't need to go to a "top school," many state colleges have good programs.

So, you would like to became a successfull psychologist? It is not so easy at all to answer your question, since the answer you need probably depends on the country you are living in + and the social situation in your country, etc. But I can assure you that it takes probably over 10 years of discipline to acheive your wanted position.
Good luck!

It depends on your proposed career path, whether you want to go into clinical or organizational psychology. At minimum you will need a Master's degree in Psychology.
