Default Walkthrough of becoming ANG pilot

I have been doing a lot of reading about flying in the military and going into the airlines afterward. I am currently in my second year of AFROTC at a large university majoring in Professional Flight Management. I am currently on the fence about dropping AFROTC, because I am losing interest and having a hard time trying to keep up with my fast paced detachment. I have a lot going on right now, including pilot training, regular college classes, and a part time job. Piling ROTC on top of it is becoming way too much for me to handle right now.

From a previous thread I made, some people recommended joining the ANG because you can serve and fly in the military part time, while also gaining seniority and experience at a regional airline. This was appealing to me, but I do not know a whole lot about going down the ANG road.

I would like to know what the process is to commission into the ANG as a 2LT and gain a pilot slot. What are some advantages and disadvantages of the ANG?
