You can start with as small as $50. It will take time, but you can start that low. I see there is a lot you need to learn. The good thing is you are young and interested in stocks.

I started buying stocks around your age. Go here http://www.scottrade.com/. You need 5 bills minimum to open an account, but they offer the cheapest commissions you'll find. My advice to you as a beginner is BUY THE STOCK OF COMPANIES YOU KNOW i.e. Nike(the 1st stock I bought) Walmart, McDeez.

There are other companies out there that are better.

I'm 22 and I want to jump in the stock game also. Is it imperative to drop 5 bills?

No. It sure isn't. You can start with a smaller amount.

Companies like Choice Trade, Ameritrade has a higher price but i think it's better. A few more cheaper companies.
