I am a first year high school student and I have finally decided on becoming a nutritionist in the future. So, I want to know what does it require to be a nutritionist? Because I want to start my studies from now, before college. Also, what department in college should I go to? A medical department? Basically I need all the steps of becoming a nutritionist.

Thanks in advance

Finish high school, take all of the advanced math and science for what is often called college prep. Doubtful any specialized classes in high school.

The department names can vary by college. Look up some of the schools and find admission standards.

Take home ec classes, especially in cooking and baking (food prep).
