The minimum standards in my own state are no felony arrests or arrests involving domestic violence or moral turpitude.
Once an agency has considered you for hire you must complete a state certification course with a minimum of 480 hours of academy training. Some agencies require more!
My state further requires a minimum of annual "continuation" training which if not met will cause for termination of state certification.

You need to be 21 years of age
You need to be physically fit
You need to have no felonies on your record, there is a small exception for misdemeanors.
You have to be an American citizen (Born or Naturalized)
You have to have a high school diploma or a G.E.D College helps alot.
etc... there are also more requirements, but I suggest you research the department you are interested in, and it should give you a list of requirements on their website, or if you go to their station they can give you some requirments.

I would guess all you would need is a high school diploma and a desire to be one of them. If you make it, don't be a jerkoff.
