Depends on the school. Often it is required that you have majored in psychology. Some schools will require an honors degree (a general degree may not be acceptable). It is helpful to have statistics courses, and to do well in them. Most schools also look for experience in a clinical setting, such as volunteering at a hospital or working as a mental health aide.
