First of all, you can't just become a spy like you see in the movies. Most jobs at places like NSA or CIA are desk jobs, run by people with backgrounds in foreign languages and politics.

People that are "spies" tend to have military backgrounds, or at least have been in the Intel Agencies for quite some time. Either way, expect to speak at least 1 non Spanish or English language FLUENTLY, preferably Russian or Arabic.

Bottom line is, don't get your hopes up. Spies as you are probably thinking of (big guns, girls, James Bond-esq) don't really exist.

Really? Well, you could major in international relations, geography, computer science, systems security (focus on crytography), political science, mathematics, microbiology, linguistics, and many other analytical subjects.

Good luck!
