Go to Shaolin Temple to become a monk and learn Kung Fu? Do you want money?
As far as I know, Shaolin Temple is divided into internal disciples and lay disciples. Neijia disciples only recite scriptures without practice, while laity disciples only practice without chanting. However, it was a long time ago. Now Shaolin Temple doesn't teach Kung Fu. Only the martial arts school run by Shaolin Temple monks teaches Kung Fu. Several well-known martial arts schools in Dengfeng, Henan Province are Luohan Academy, a monk group in Tagou Dharma Academy. Tagou mainly trains Sanda. The Buddhist monk group in Dharma Academy seems to be a martial arts performance (I heard that the specific situation is unknown and I have never been there). I'm sure Luohan Academy practices Shaolin Kung Fu, such as iron sand palm and iron arm. I don't know what your purpose is. In fact, Shaolin Temple is not as good as you think, and it is completely different from movies. At present, the so-called Shaolin Temple martial arts school is no different from the army. Completely militarized management, and some like universities. People are not so noble, they are all poor children in mountain villages, intrigued, rude and daring, and they rampage with their own kung fu. If you really believe in Buddhism, I suggest you go to the local temple. Maybe there's a master hanging around. Now Shaolin Temple has become an international tourist attraction, and profit is the main purpose. Monks nowadays are also very modern, playing mobile phones and computers, and it is difficult to convert to my Buddha there. If you go to Shaolin Temple with the mentality of learning Kung Fu, I advise you to find a martial arts class or hire a personal trainer. Martial arts schools are not cheap now, and you can't practice for hours a day. It must be bad to be forced to practice. Remember to think about it, that kind of place can't come back if you want. I hope my answer can help you.
