    There are many ways, but be sure to study English very very thoroughly, for starters. Taking theater/drama will also help before university. Find a university with a respected mass-comm program. Most are downright jokes. A school intent on getting you jobs will have a school station that is tightly programmed, where you learn the realities of broadcasting, such as you don't play what you like, you follow the playlist and execute to the satisfaction of the program director. If they ask you to clean the bathroom with a toothbrush, smile and start scrubbing while reminding yourself there are thousands out there who'd gladly trade places with you.
