Due to budget cuts, NASA has currently de-emphasized its manned space program to the point that right now... you pretty much can't. Gotta have those dollars to provide services for illegal aliens (of the terrestrial variety), you see. If we were to discover extraterrestrial aliens, and they were able to vote (legally or not), then we could count on the Democrats to start throwing money at the space program (for Republican support, I suppose we'd have to find oil out there, or maybe Ferengi).
Just in case something like that happens and the manned space program rises from its grave, traditionally most astronauts have come from the military (as aviators). Technically this isn't required, but if you're not a jet pilot, you'll probably need a degree in a scientific field and several years of research experience.
