I don't believe your service requirement 'triggers' until after your Sophomore year. My memory is that is when you have to make the call, whether you play sports or not.
So if you're a Sophomore and you drop out or just switch schools, I don't believe you have signed a service commitment. But if you're a Junior, presumptively you have. And if you try to transfer out, your service requirement is still going to follow you. You can try to defer it (I believe a lot of athletes in up in the reserves as well), but you don't get to just transfer out and pretend it didn't happen.
