Hi,
I have tried to google this question, but there are mixed answers. Therefore, I would like to post it here.
I have a bachelor's degree, and I am a full-time federal employee. I never think that I will join the military until I heard about the Guard which I can work full time and serve part-time.
When I asked my recruiter about the commission, she said I would be commissioned only there were open opportunities. It means I cannot become an officer with my degree.
When I google this question, someone said it is possible to join the ANG as an officer with a degree. One of them is attending OCS/OTS, and the other is AFOQT.

Unless your speciality is law or medicine, you will have to attend OTS/OCS. The ADOQT is the test that qualifies you to attend officers' training
