Subject: What are the requirements to become a Criminalist

I want to graduate highschool and go into the forensics field. I'm looking at 
the diffrent careers in the field and criminalistics sounds the most 
interesting. I dont however want it to take more than 10 years of schooling 
for me to get on the field and working. Can you tell me what are the minimum 
and maximum requirements that i would need to be in this field? I tired 
looking on the internet but its really no help. It gives all the information 
ecxcept what i acctually need.
