<p>What is the earliest possible date you could potentially receive an appoint by? How early can you get everything in your application turned in?</p>
<p>Please read previous threads and all of your questions will be answered.</p>
<p>I believe that the admissions board meets around the second week of October. If you have all of your stuff done on your application (which I would recommend that you do before your senior year even starts...it's nice to not have to worry about it) then you can get an LOA as early as mid-Octoberish. Then, it depends on when your congressional interviews are and when you are notified of your reciept of a nomination. I think some people on here got an appointment as early as November, but I had to wait until December until I heard I was getting an appointment, and I didn't get my appointment package until early January. At least that's how it was for us. :)</p>
