I'm so lost

I wanted to know if anyone could help me figure out what i should do. I am a junior in high school and i want to become a paid firefighter because I love the fire service. i am currently a fire explorer and i plan on joining my department as a volunteer firefighter at 18 (department is paid and volunteer) my parents insist that what ever i do i must go to college and i don't know what type of degree to get and wanted to know what degrees do most firefighters have and if you guys have any other suggestions for what i should do to help me along in becoming a firefighter later on in life.
