Get a job, take an interest in more than just our sphere of influence, fix problems in the company and make sure you have metrics to prove your efforts. After you can do this, formalise you position with one of the over priced BA courses and read BABOK.
If you're not a natural problem solver with and interest in tech, there wont be much future as a BA for you.
I've been an IT nerd my whole life, fortunately I refused to study IT in my main degree and ended up working on the Business side of things for 3 years before transitioning to BA role - which I believe is the best way to do it for a "Business" BA, an "IT" BA I cant comment for.
