Question
Hello, I am a grad of WMU aviation and plan on joining the Army or Marine Corps. I Would like to fly choppers or be involved in aviation administration. Is there any way of assuring my position in flight school  or gainful employment before signing my contract?

Answer
Marine Corps Officer Contracts come in 3 categories 1) Ground 2) Aviation 3) Law.
So yes, you will know what path you are going down before you even leave for OCS. Your OSO (officer selection officer) will help steer you in the right direction. Go to www.marineofficer.com more some more info. Best of Luck.
