Not everyone in 75th Ranger Regiment is actually a Ranger. They have cooks, mechanics, and the same support personnel any other unit would have. So, you could get into the 75th Ranger Regiment that way.
If you actually want to be a Ranger, there's a couple different ways to go.
Personnel just entering the Army would have to go in under a RIP (Ranger Indoctrination Programme) contract, which would limit the MOS choices available to them. 11B (infantry) is the most common, but there'll also be medics, communications personnel, etc. After your Basic Training and Advanced Individual Training (or One Station Unit Training for infantry), you would first go to jump school, then to RIP. If you pass RIP, you can be assigned to a Ranger battalion. If not, you'll be sent to some line unit.
If you're already a noncommissioned officer or commissioned officer, and want to go to a line company of a Ranger battalion in a leadership position, you will first need to complete Ranger school, which is a requirement for combat leaders in the 75th Ranger Regiment.

When were the Army Rangers formed?
The modern Ranger Regiment was created in 1986, but can trace its roots all the way back to the colonial times. They were created to provide advanced warning of raids by hostile Native American tribes and to strike back at these tribes. The spiritual birth of the Army Rangers is considered to be Roger's Rangers, formed in 1751 by Major Robert Rogers. The Rangers have fought in every American conflict, except World War 1, in some form or another. Eventually, the 75th Infantry Regiment (Ranger) was formed during the Vietnam War. After the war, the Regiment was changed into the 1st and 2nd Ranger Battalions, followed by the 3rd Ranger Battaltion and the Regimental Headquarters in 1984. In 1986, all of the Ranger Battlations were placed under the 75th Ranger Regiment. The 4th, 5th, and 6th Ranger Battalions were reactivated as the Ranger Training Brigade, the precursor to the modern-day Ranger School.
