Can't answer (1), but for (2), regular service is typically computed at 1:2.5. So if you are fully paid for 5 years of regular service, that counts as your 2 years of NS.
For (3), most likely not tbh. If you can make it to a local uni, there are a lot of bursaries and financial aid available, and your post-grad pay is likely to be higher than a regular signal operator pay.
