Music Ed is it good?

Hi guys, I'm a middle schooler and am considering Music Ed in piano as a college professor(preferably at UW). From my research, you either have to be: A. Experienced, B. Really skilled, or C. All of the above. College professors or music ed students out there, how long does it take to become a UW music professor, and what do you guys think of it? Thanks so much! :)
