How do you become a State highway patrol officer?

Answer 1

Answer

There are states such as Florida who require you to be only 19. Of course, I think you should have to be older to have the responsibilities of a police officer.

It varies from one state to another, but I would suggest that you have to be at least able to vote to be considered for that empoyment.

Answer 2

In some places all you need to have is to complete high school and be at least 18 to attend the academy. In most other locations they have higher requirements and are looking for college degrees or experience.

Answer 3

In most states police officers have to be at least 21 years old, although a few permit oficers to be as young as 18. Even though a state might have that 18-year requirement, it is rare to see an officer under 18 in the field. Most officers under 21 will be working in jails.
