Simple... Immunization shots.

You will need a VISA. It takes close to 2 weeks to get it. Search for Indian consulate in Google and get forms etc from website before you go.

You definitely need a visa to visit India. You could apply to the Indian Embassy in Washington D.C or any of the Consulate offices. Choose the closest office for processing your visa. Here is a list

An important note:
- allow yourself sufficient time for visa processing. A few weeks more than what they say.
- don't believe someone who says that a visa can be granted at the Indian airport. This is just asking for trouble.

...call the Indian consulate in NYC at the UN or their office in Washington D.C. (I don't have their numbers but I'm sure Google does)...

You need valid passport with visitor visa to visit India. Indian embassy in your country will help you or else there may be some authorised travel agents/ agencies who charge visa fee and arrange visa for you. There is no other special requirement to travel abroad (india)

a passport that has more than six months to run before departure date before it expires. you will not be allowed in the country unless, mine runs out in April 2008, i am going in DEC2007, have to get a new passport. you need to apply at Indian embassy for visa. don't leave it too near departure date, they can be a bit slow. and its cash only, for some reason?/ tit for tat i expect, here in the uk the are starting agency only to apply for visa

well, if u go straight to india, the airport can grant u 60 days visa. since u are a US citizen, u wont need anything except a place to stay, passport, flight, and of course money.
