Officer Options

[PilotHopeful]

I just turned 27 and have returned to finish my B.S. degree (I have an A.A.S. degree).

I have 87 credit hours and almost 5 years of management experience with a Fortune 500 company.

I want to commission and I am exploring my options. I'm not going to school full-time because I work full-time. I'm taking about 9 credit hours a semester, but I'm going summers so it should even out.

If I go guard, can I commission at 90 credit hours? Is that a good idea? How much schooling costs will they help me with? Also I want to branch aviation. I have already taken the AFAST, ASVAB, and flight physical. I passed all three with high marks (I applied active duty for Warrant Officer and was not selected). Can I be guranteed aviation in the guard? My GPA is a 3.4, hopefully I will graduate *** laude by the time I finish my degree (Information Systems).

Any help would be appreciated.
