there are way more than two requirements to be a Clandestine Service Officer for the CIA. Some of these include: - Younger than 35 years of age.

- Must have US citizenship

- Must have a bachelors degree is a relative field (business, chemical/nuclear engineering, international relations) and graduate with at least a 3.0 GPA.

- Must have strong interpersonal and ambiguity skills.

- Must speak at least one foreign language fluently, the agency prefers two. Preferably a language that invloves a "hot zone". (French, Chinese, Farsi, Arabic, etc.)

- If you have a husband/wife, they must be a US citizen.

- A strong interest in international affairs and policy. Theres 7 reqs, and I'm sure there are more. Check www.cia.gov's Clandestine Services Page for more information.

One of the requirements to join the CIA is that you cannot have a police record. You will have to be able to obtain a high security clearance. You must also have gone to college to obtain a degree in criminal justice. Speaking more than one language is a bonus. You must have also obtained good grades throughout your schooling.
