PFC (Join to see), If you accepted a minuteman scholarship you will have a service obligation to the guard or reserve once you commission. Once that commitment is complete, you are eligible to apply to switch components through programs such as the Call to Active Duty program. You can use tuition assistance (TA), G.I. Bill, or a state funded scholarship to pay for school without incurring an obligation to the Guard or Reserve. I must note that once you commission, if you use TA you will incur a service obligation. Please contact me if you have more questions.

SPC (Join to see), I was also in the Army National Guard and commissioned active duty. Yes, you will be able to transfer components and your time in service will be creditable towards pay (as long as you did not sign a Guaranteed Reserve Forces Duty Contract for a bonus when you contracted with ROTC). If you have any questions about the process please feel free to message me.

You are a Reserve Commissioned Officer and unfortunately there are no promises
