Hi Josh ! It is never to early to start preparing for your career in forensics. I am a Forensic Serologist that created www.ForensicMentor.com for people just like you.
What you need to do is major in a physical science, and, if possible, take a forensic minor. I know that California State U at Fullerton has an excellent Applied Forensic Science program ( I did it, it was awesome !) and any CSU or UC degree in a physical science will suffice.
Also, register on my site and I will get you job postings, workshops, certificaitons and internship referrels. www.ForensicMentor.com
