From the Constitution (Article 2, section 1, clause 5):

"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."

So natural born citizen, at least 35 years old, and a resident for 14 consecutive years. They also can't have been president for 2 terms already (22nd amendment)
