Army National Guard Pilot Slots

The Army or MEPs does not care about that DQ and that is why I am doing Army now. I want to enlist in the Reserves or the guard as a 15Q to not only be able to finish my degree but have more aviation experience to pick up a Army pilot slot through Army ROTC at my university when I return. The Texas Military Department has current job openings for Active Guard Reserve (AGR), Technician, Traditional, Counterdrug, State, Instructor, and Warrant Officer positions. Search below by job type, pay grade, position, and location. There are rewarding career opportunities available across the great state of Texas!

I'm an enlisted infantryman in the Army National Guard and currently a college student. I have a private pilot's license and likely will have my commercial rating completed by the time at which I graduate. I have an interest in being a Naval Aviator. I was wondering if, before I committed to commissioning a Naval or Marine Corps officer, I could get a pilot slot guaranteed in my contract.
I am also curious as to how much of a factor college grades would be in determining if I could get such a slot and if my college major would matter. Is a degree in a technical subject required, as it seems to be in the Air Force?
