A lot depends on you. Attend a camp every summer and start attending college camps when you feel ready. I know of a ref here that is doing D3 after five years of officiating. I chatting with the son of the assignor for D3 last summer during camp. He said that all the clinicians get together after camp and determine who is ready. They also talk about the improvement they saw in officials that didn't make it last year.
In your first couple of years don't get bent out of shape about moving up the ladder. Get good where you are. I would rather be the best JV official on the planet then call a D3 game before I am ready and fail and be sent back never to see the top again.
Once you are calling d3 and d2 on a regular basis, then you can start talking about doing d1. When you feel you are the top 10% where you are, then you are ready to move up.
