Joining the national guard?

I was think of joining the national guard but i was wondering how likely i would be to get shipped of cuz i still wanted to go to college but i was also wondering how much i would make after boot camp with taxes and signing money and all that

For a pay chart go to http://www.military.com

If you join the guard you can be deployed after your finish your MOS (tech school). It does not matter if you are in college. If you do not mind being deployed by all means enlist. If you really want to finish school first, then go to school first and have the military repay your loans later. You can also join ROTC in college and compete for scholarships.

Check all branches and see what they have to offer and please make sure that you read all of the fine print before you sign anything.

Good luck.

EDIT: THE POST ABOVE DOES NOT STATE THAT IF YOU HAVE GONE TO BASIC TRAINING AND AIT AND ARE NOT A CONTRACTED CADET (A CADET WHO IS IN THEIR JUNIOR YEAR) YOU CAN BE DEPLOYED. IF YOU GO STRAIGHT ROTC FOR YOUR FRESHMAN AND SOPHOMORE YEARS AND THEN GO INTO THE SMP (SIMULTANEOUS MEMBERSHIP PROGRAM) AS A JUNIOR YOU WILL NOT BE DEPLOYED UNTIL AFTER YOU ARE COMMISSIONED AND YOU HAVE FINISHED YOUR OFFICER BASIC COURSE AND ARE BRANCH QUALIFIED.

Oh for Christ's sake, it's not a JOB!!!
Join it TO get shipped or stay the hell out.

you can actually go to school and join the guard. and if you qualify for the ROTC scholarship you can apply for the ARNG scholarship where they pay 100% of your tuition as well as give you the training once a weekend a month while in the guard. this is known as the SMP program where you are non deployable until commissioning as a 2nd LT in the army.
