Many "professional" astronomers seem to get into astronomy by the back door; they had other useful skills and were in the right place at the right time. No matter how you get in, you'll need a strong grounding in mathematics, a good knowledge of physics, and EXCELLENT computer skills. Some background in engineering disciplines wouldn't hurt.
