It's possible to become "more then a warm body", fast, if you have some experience with interface design, such as graphics design.
I'd suggest reading all the major books, (on the IxDA web site), which should make your head spin, but will "sink in" when you start working. The other major success factor which seems not to be highlighted so much, is knowing how to work with/read/disseminate requirements and extract patterns from them. The first part of this "understanding" could be done by anyone involved in IT, the second part is a more specific to IXD, which is why you plagiarize, copy and generally do what the best of breed UI is doing, until you have a compelling reason not to. Note I'd get an IXDA job first and go to school part time. Also in the US, it seems to get a head you've got to move on, which means a new company. ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
